Description
The American Academy of Nursing Fellowship, administered by the National Academy of Medicine as part of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, offers a prestigious two-year, part-time experience for talented nursing scholars. Fellows remain in their primary academic/research roles while participating in the work of a designated National Academies board (e.g., Global Health, Health Care Services, Population Health). The fellowship aims to advance evidence-based health care and public health research, foster policy leadership, and expand the fellow’s professional network. Each fellow is matched with a senior mentor, contributes to study committees or roundtables, attends orientation and annual meetings, and receives a flexible research grant to support their career development.
