Description

Weill Cornell GIM Global Health Research Fellowship

The mission of the fellowship is to train general internists for academic careers in global health research so that they are equipped to fight health disparities on a global scale. The three-year fellowship includes field-based research in Brazil, Haiti, India, or Tanzania; a Master of Science degree in Clinical Epidemiology or other tailored research methods; and teaching and clinical service at Weill Cornell New York-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City.  

The unique 3-year length of the fellowship provides protected time to develop trainees' research portfolios and prepare them for careers in global health research by the end of the program. Trainees will receive extensive mentorship by Weill Cornell faculty, who are based both in New York City and at our international sites. The fellowship is flexible so that it can be tailored to each trainee's needs. 

Applicants should be Internal Medicine physicians, eligible to practice in the United States. Prior research experience is not needed but is encouraged.
