Fellowship


This unique 2 year fellowship will focus on developing the clinical skills to address the global impact of infectious diseases and the delivery of medical care including emergency medical care in resource limited environments. The fellow will also be able to explore the impact of these infectious diseases in New York City's own diverse, global population that frequently seeks medical care at St Luke's/Roosevelt Hospital Center.

The fellowship will provide the opportunity to acquire necessary skills and professional contacts to facilitate a career in Global Health by coordinating activities between international clinical/research rotations, St Luke's/Roosevelt Departments of Emergency Medicine, Infectious Diseases/Travel Medicine Clinic, HIV Comprehensive Clinic, NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene as well as partnering with a number of national and international NGO's.

We are seeking candidates who have demonstrated a commitment to the field of global health and will give preference to those who have already completed a Masters degree in public health, education or science. Although the requirements for completion of this fellowship are clinical, if a strong eligible candidate would like to pursue a Masters degree, there is an opportunity to do so within this fellowship.
