NYU Langone Health offers a one-year postgraduate year 2 (PGY-2) Solid Organ Transplant Pharmacy Residency program with an intensive and individualized experience in the inpatient and ambulatory setting. You receive the training necessary to develop clinical expertise in solid organ transplant pharmacotherapy.

Core rotations in kidney/pancreas, liver, heart/mechanical circulatory support (MCS), and lung transplant allow you to advance your knowledge in the pharmacotherapy of different organs and to refine your clinical skills. Additional rotations include transplant infectious diseases, surgical/transplant ICU, and experiences in the ambulatory setting. Longitudinal involvement with organ-specific listing committees and completion of a research project are also required. As a resident, you have a broad range of clinical and research opportunities and the flexibility to integrate your professional goals. Our program equips you with the knowledge and experience to be a competent solid organ transplant pharmacy practitioner.

Current and past residents of our PGY-2 Solid Organ Transplant Pharmacy Residency hail from diverse backgrounds. Learn more about our residents.
