Fellowship
THE REIMAGINING HEALTHCARE FELLOWSHIP:
If you missed our last opportunity, here is another chance to get involved. We are excited to announce that we are hosting another cohort of the Reimagining Healthcare Fellowship.
The Reimagining Healthcare Fellowship is an 8 week program for high school students in grades 10 to 12 who are curious about how healthcare works today and how it can work better in the future.
The fellowship brings together students, clinicians, founders, and global health professionals to explore real challenges in healthcare, including access, equity, technology, ethics, and innovation. Rather than focusing on memorization, the program emphasizes critical thinking, systems level understanding, and asking meaningful questions about how healthcare can be improved.
Sessions are held on Saturdays and are designed to fit around school commitments. Most weeks feature a guest speaker, and structured assignments are released every two weeks for independent thinking and research.
Throughout the program, fellows work toward a final project in which they identify a healthcare issue they care about and propose a thoughtful, realistic solution. Final projects may take the form of a presentation, written essay, or video essay.
Prizes and honors will be awarded, so please keep an eye out for announcements and be attentive to the grading rubric.
No prior medical experience is required. The fellowship is open to students interested in healthcare, technology, public policy, global issues, or social impact.
