Hello!
We have just been approved to expand our program to add an additional resident. Our program is a 6 year program with the PGY-2 year as a fully funded dedicated research year (excellent opportunity to build your resume, work with both clinical and research faculty, and get paid to enjoy the greatest city in the world as a regular person). We are looking to fill both our PGY-2 year (research year) and our PGY-3 year (clinical PGY-2 year). The intern spot will be filled through the match.
If you would like to know more, please see my review on these forums of our program, visit our website, or contact Joy Dinius at jdinius@ucsd.edu. Also, see this sweet video my class made:
To apply, see instructions here:

I hope to hear from some of you and meet you during our interviews.
