Clinical Cornea and Uveitis Fellowship Programs
Applications for Clinical Cornea and Uveitis Fellowships will be handled, beginning in 2008, through a centralized application process administered by SFMatch.
Please refer to the SFMatch website to register for the match and to read about the new process for applying to ophthalmology fellowship training programs. Once registered, you can view our program listing on the SFMatch directory website for all required documents at: www.sfmatch.org .
It is required that clinical fellows obtain a California medical license before assumption of clinical duties. Accepted fellows should immediately make application directly to the California Medical Board, whose address is:
California Medical Board

Research Fellowship
If you are interested in applying for a research fellowship, please complete and return your application to the address indicated on the form. In addition, we require your curriculum vitae and three letters of recommendation, one of which is from your present director. Generally, preference is given to applicants who are planning to enter a teaching or research position. Any applicant who anticipates accepting such a position should obtain a letter from the chief of the department informing us that the position will be available to him or her upon completion of training at Proctor. Research fellowship applicants who are not U.S. citizens should attempt to obtain funds in their own countries.
Deadline
The deadline for submission of applications and other documents for research fellowships beginning in July of 2010 is September 1, 2009. Upon receipt of the indicated application, letters of recommendation, curriculum vitae, and personal statement, we will be glad to consider you as an applicant for one of our positions.
The Fellowship Committee of the Proctor Foundation meets in December to select the candidates who will be accepted for research fellowship training for the following July. Candidates will be notified of the committee's decision six months before the anticipated date of the start of the fellowship.
