The Beryl Benacerraf Fund supports the Benacerraf Visiting Ultrasound Fellowship, established in 2022, as a tribute to Dr. Beryl Rica Benacerraf, a pioneer in the field of obstetrical and gynecologic ultrasound and a GOHO Foundation faculty member.

Dr. Benacerraf was a world-renowned visionary and teacher of gynecologic and obstetrical ultrasound.  She was a consummate observer of anatomy and pathology, having published numerous groundbreaking studies and books on fetal and gynecologic disorders. In addition to her scientific work, Dr. Benacerraf was a passionate educator, serving as a mentor to numerous trainees, many of whom have become leaders in the field of diagnostic ultrasound.  She ardently recognized the power and quality of diagnostic ultrasound provided by well-trained physicians, which is the foundational principle of this fellowship opportunity. 

The goal of this fellowship is to expand the ultrasound training of physicians dedicated to the highest quality imaging in women’s health care. The funded fellowship provides the opportunity for a subspecialty trainee in an area of obstetrics and gynecology, radiology and others, to spend an elective rotation of at least one month duration at a U.S. institution, learning to perform and interpret diagnostic ultrasound and ultrasound-guided procedures under the tutelage of experts in the field who are not available at their home institution.

APPLICATIONS ARE CLOSED FOR 2023. WE WILL MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT WHEN THEY OPEN FOR 2024.
