Description
The New York Academy of Medicine, in collaboration with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), offers this fellowship to strengthen the patient-physician relationship through educational innovation. The 2027–2029 program will support one fellow developing, implementing, and evaluating an innovative approach to teaching medical students, residents, and/or fellows the essential elements of the clinical transaction: accurate history-taking, thorough physical examination, and rigorous clinical reasoning.
The fellowship aims to improve clinical care through rigorous educational experiences, demonstrate the value of a well-conducted clinical transaction, and improve patients’ experiences through clinical and technical competence, empathy, and compassion. It also promotes institutional structures and processes that support effective clinical education, consistent with the clinical care competencies in the ACGME Internal Medicine Milestones.
