The transition into hematology-oncology fellowship, beginning July 1, can be challenging for new trainees. It's essential to adapt to the intense learning environment and develop both medical and interpersonal skills. Understanding patient care beyond treatment protocols and establishing supportive networks are crucial. Engaging in diverse clinical settings enriches experience, while effective time management and self-advocacy help mitigate burnout. Volunteering and mentorship play significant roles in personal and professional development, as emphasized by prominent figures in the field.
