Though the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism may be one of the department’s smaller divisions, its members turned out in full force to celebrate the graduates of their Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism fellowship. In addition to faculty, fellows, and clinician colleagues, many members of the graduates’ families also were present at Rapid Creek Cidery north […]
On the mild summer evening of Friday, June 7, staff, faculty, family, and friends of Endocrinology fellows Zi Tan, MD, and Amr Wahba, MBBCh, gathered at Wilson’s Ciderhouse to celebrate their graduation. Set in the lower level of the quintessential Iowan venue, above a sprawling green orchard outside, guests arrived to passed hors d’oeuvres and […]
Late on a Monday afternoon in March, Endocrinology fellows, faculty, and staff came together to create half-burst bloom paintings.

The most obvious is that two of them—Allergy / Immunology and Rheumatology—are both housed within the Division of Immunology, a strength lent to both fellowship programs.
