Call for Applications: 2023-2024 SIDM Fellowship in Diagnostic Excellence
The Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine (SIDM) has a call for applications for the 2023-2024 SIDM Fellowship in Diagnostic Excellence.
The Fellowship, funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, is designed to enhance the learners’ knowledge and skills in diagnostic quality and safety. Successful candidates will have advanced training (MD, DO, advanced practice degree), doctoral/terminal degree in relevant discipline, or other significant qualifying experience) and possess a commitment to a career in improving diagnosis and addressing diagnostic error.
The one-year SIDM fellowship provides professional career development through:
- A personal mentor in your area of focus within diagnosis (e.g., education, research, practice improvement, advocacy, informatics, etc.)
- Networking within the diagnostic medicine field
- A structured curriculum of webinars
- Opportunities for disseminating scholarship at SIDM's annual meeting (Diagnostic Error in Medicine conference) and through peer-reviewed publications, such as the SIDM-sponsored journal Diagnosis
With the support of JAHF, SIDM will also award an “Age-Friendly Care” Fellow who will develop and implement a project to improve diagnostic quality and safety for older adults. JAHF has also partnered with the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) to support a NAM Scholar in Diagnostic Excellence with a focus on advancing equity and diagnostic excellence for older adults.
Questions can be sent by email to fellowship@improvediagnosis.org. The application deadline is March 21.
