Summary: Two-year fellowship for early-career emergency medicine scholars to participate in policy, research, and leadership activities at the National Academies, with mentorship and a research grant.
The fellowship provides early-career health science scholars in emergency medicine an opportunity to engage in evidence-based healthcare and public health studies that improve patient care and access within domestic and global health systems. Fellows remain in their primary academic or research positions while dedicating 10–20% of their time over two years to participate in the work of a health- and medicine-related board at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Activities include policy and committee work, report contributions, and professional development through mentorship by a senior member of the National Academy of Medicine (NAM). The program is supported by an endowment from the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM).
