Diana Karkow recently began a pharmaceutical fellowship with UI Hospitals and Clinics. The fellowship will focus on the clinical research of infectious disease (ID). Stewardship, efficacy, safety and practice are among the focus areas of the research, and will center on the role of pharmaceutics in treating infection.

Diana looks forward to the problem-solving aspect of her role as fellow, and states she is fascinated by the vast degree of variation within ID.

Diana hopes to apply the experience gained throughout her fellowship with UI Hospitals and Clinics in future professional endeavors. Upon completion of her fellowship she hopes to continue working as part of a large hospital and academic institution as an Infectious Disease Clinical Specialist.
