Description
The NAM Fellowship in Osteopathic Medicine is designed for early-career academic professionals in osteopathic medicine seeking to participate in evidence-based health care or public health studies at the national level. Fellows remain at their home institutions while engaging with a designated health- or medicine-related board of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The program aims to cultivate future leaders in osteopathic medicine by providing immersive exposure to influential research, policy development, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Fellows receive mentorship from NAM members and actively contribute to high-impact projects that shape health policy and practice.
