Overview

The Petrie-Flom Center fellowships are the central component of the Petrie-Flom Center’s mission to promote scholarly inquiry and shape the debates surrounding issues of health law policy, biotechnology, and bioethics. The fellowship programs are designed to support scholars pursuing various forms of research, including work from philosophical, economical, or empirical perspectives and are intended to be focused on contributing original ideas or findings that could be useful in guiding legal policy in the fields of health law, policy and bioethics.

• Academic Fellowships -- This is a two year fellowship paying $60,000 per year for persons who already have a graduate degree in law or some other discipline, and are interested in doing original academic work in the Center's fields of health law policy, biotechnology or bioethics.

• Student Fellowships -- The Petrie-Flom Center Student Fellowship program is designed to support graduate students from across Harvard University interested in carrying out independent research in topics at the intersection of health law and policy.
