Academic Fellowship Program

The Academic Fellowship is a postdoctoral program specifically designed to identify, cultivate and promote promising healthcare scholars early in their careers. Fellows are selected from among recent graduates, young academics and mid-career practitioners who are committed to spending two years at the Center pursuing publishable research that is likely to make a significant contribution to the field of health law, policy, economics or bioethics. The Academic Fellowship is a full-time two-year residential appointment designed for fellows to devote their full time to scholarly activities in furtherance of their own research proposals. In addition to pursuing their research and writing, fellows contribute to the intellectual life of the Center and the Harvard Law School community through mentoring students, presenting their research in and attending faculty workshops and seminars, and participating in Events and Webcasts sponsored by the Center.
