61. - Medical residency/fellowship programs

This series comprises residency and fellowship programs that prepare physicians (MD), osteopathic physicians (DO), and podiatrists (DPM) for certification as practitioners of recognized medical specialties. These programs are approved and accredited by designated professional associations and require from one to seven years to complete, depending on the program. Residency or fellowship programs that also result in the completion of an academic degree (e.g., MS, MSc, PhD), should be reported under one of the clinical sciences codes located in Series 26. Biological and biomedical sciences or in subseries 51.14 Medical clinical sciences/graduate medical studies, rather than in a residency code located in Series 61.

61.09 - Medical genetics and genomics residency/fellowship programs

This subseries comprises instructional program classes 61.0901 to 61.0999.

61.0901 - Clinical biochemical genetics residency programs

This instructional program class comprises any residency training program that prepares physicians to perform and interpret biochemical analyses relevant to the diagnosis and management of human genetic diseases, and to serve as a consultant regarding laboratory diagnosis of a broad range of inherited disorders. One of three general certificates in the area of medical genetics.
