pedagogy, advocacy, expression, and critique necessary to advancing health equity, and have been deemed crucial to health professions training by national healthcare organizations. However, opportunities for targeted advanced faculty development or graduate medical education training in these fields are limited.
Through a combination of didactics, experiential learning and application, and mentorship within the existing frameworks, resources, and leadership of the Center for Medical Humanities and Social Medicine (CMHSM) and Health Humanities at Hopkins Emergency Medicine (H3EM), the ultimate goal of the fellowship is to equip the graduate with the skills necessary to become a nationally recognized leader in education, scholarship, research, and/or advocacy as relevant to the Health Humanities as applied to the Health Professions.
