VirtuOHSU is the OHSU Simulation Cadaver lab. Skull base fellows have the opportunity to participate in the resident series of dissection labs (4-5 per year), plus the opportunity to utilize the cadaver lab for self-guided or small group sessions.

There are basic science and translational science labs connected to the department, and with affiliated departments.

Fellows from 2018-present are listed below

This fellowship is a comprehensive 1-year fellowship, encompassing the full spectrum of skull base and complex cranial surgery from surgical approaches and nuances to interdisciplinary management of patients, as well as anatomical and clinical research. The department's high clinical volume and expertise creates an ideal combination of supervision and autonomy, preparing fellows for an independent academic career in skull base surgery. Under the direction of Aclan Dogan, MD, one of the leading skull base surgeons in the world, the clinical service is extremely busy and productive. Over 400 craniotomies for tumors and vascular disease, and over 120 transphenoidal pituitary surgery procedures are performed each year. Olabisi Sanusi, MD (a past Skull Base Fellow) offers the fellow opportunity to be active in the endoscopic skull base surgery service. Maria Fleseriu, MD, an internationally recognized neuroendocrinologist specializing in pituitary disease and Director of the NW Pituitary Center at OHSU provides an opportunity to further neuroendocrine education.
