General Internal Medicine Fellowship Program

General Internal Medicine fellows will complete a two year fellowship program preparing them for careers in health services research or medical education. In the first year, fellows pursue a rigorous core curriculum in biostatistics, epidemiology and the fundamentals of health services research while working closely with faculty to develop an individualized program of study and initiate a project based on their own interests. The second year emphasis is on completing and presenting the project. Coursework can lead to a Master’s degree in Public Policy or Health Studies. For those fellows interested in the research in hospital medicine, the hospitalist fellowship track is an additional option. Major research opportunities span faculty interests including vulnerable populations, health disparities, quality of care & outcomes, cost-effectiveness, mental health, obesity and diabetes. Weekly conferences will showcase the developing research projects of fellows, and faculty mentors from the Department of Medicine and the social sciences help scholars focus and refine their research.

The MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics was established in 1984 under the direction of Mark Siegler, MD. It was one of the first programs in the nation devoted to clinical ethics.

The Center for Clinical Medical Ethics fellowship program began in 1986 and has been immensely successful, training more than 150 clinicians. In the three years in which US News and World Report evaluated medical school ethics training programs (1991, 1992, and 1993), the MacLean Center was chosen each year as the number one ethics program in the country. The quality of the MacLean Center graduates is unparalleled among The University of Chicago fellowship programs.

The MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics at The University of Chicago invites applications for highly competitive positions in a unique year-long training program that begins annually in July. The goal of this program is to prepare clinicians to bring applied medical ethics to their institutions.
