Harvard Medical School Fellowships for Faculty

HMS Faculty Fellowship

The HMS Faculty Fellowship is a two-year, non-degree Faculty Fellowship program for HMS junior faculty. The Fellowship is designed to address faculty needs for additional support to conduct a mentored research project, including clinical and/or translational research, and to provide junior faculty release time from responsibilities at a key point in their career development. 

Each Faculty Fellow will receive $100,000 over a two-year period to support their scholarly efforts. Faculty Fellows are required to devote appropriate time toward the development of their academic career, to meet regularly with their mentors, and to present at the annual Health Policy Meeting. In addition, the fellows are provided opportunities to participate in OCCE-sponsored faculty development activities that enhance their leadership skills and visibility.   

Eligibility

  • Doctoral degree (e.g. MD, PhD, DO, DMD, DDS, ScD)
  • Harvard Medical School appointment at the level of Instructor or Assistant Professor
  • Applications will also be considered from clinical or research fellows who are in the process of appointment/promotion to instructor and/or assistant professor at Harvard Medical School
