University of Chicago students to train at Evanston Northwestern hospitals

The University of Chicago has signed an affiliation agreement with Evanston Northwestern Healthcare to educate and train future doctors at Evanston's three hospitals. Evanston Northwestern ended its 78-year-old relationship with Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine in June. Following a one-year transition that began July 1, residents and students from the training programs of the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Medicine will begin to train at Evanston Northwestern facilities that include hospitals in Evanston, Highland Park and Glenview in July 2009.
