We offer one sleep medicine fellowship position each year. This multidisciplinary program brings together expertise from pulmonary medicine, neurology, pediatric pulmonology and neurology, otolaryngology (ENT) and dentistry. Most training takes place at Tufts Medical Center and the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston. To apply, you must have completed an ACGME-accredited residency in anesthesiology, family medicine, internal medicine, neurology, otolaryngology, pediatrics or psychiatry. You should also plan to sit for your board exam in your primary specialty before or during the fellowship year.

Multidisciplinary training

Fellows engage in research on key topics like sleep in the ICU, sleep quality during noninvasive ventilation, and how sleep-disordered breathing affects pulmonary hypertension. These projects cover clinical and pathophysiologic aspects of sleep disorders. With strong mentorship and resources, fellows contribute to advancing sleep medicine and improving patient care.

Fellows take part in regular educational sessions to deepen their knowledge and clinical skills in sleep medicine. Weekly lectures cover key topics in adult and pediatric sleep disorders, while monthly case discussions provide hands-on experience reviewing real cases. These sessions support clinical growth and prepare fellows for advanced practice in the field.

The fellowship provides training across multiple specialties like pulmonary, neurology, pediatrics, otolaryngology, psychiatry and dentistry. This approach gives fellows broad exposure to sleep disorders in adults and children and helps them learn how these conditions connect with different fields for expert care.
