Technological advancement is rapidly driving change and creating new standards in both patient care and healthcare delivery. This acceleration has highlighted the need for development of leaders in digital healthcare transformation. Weill Cornell Emergency Medicine in partnership with Cornell Tech is pleased to announce the new Innovation Fellowship. This new fellowship will inspire, empower, and ensure emergency medicine physicians are equipped with the required knowledge and tools to be effective leaders in tech-driven healthcare transformation within their institutions.
The fellowship combines the core innovation mission of Weill Cornell Medicine’s Center for Virtual Care with the innovation, education and facilitation that is central to the mission of Cornell Tech to prepare clinicians to lead institutional change and to ground developments and partnerships in the clinical—specifically Emergency Medicine—space.
Fellows will acquire skills that are not part of traditional clinical training, including: product and process idea generation; market research; design thinking; medical design; product development; project management; business venture creation; regulatory awareness; intellectual property law and practice; knowledge of venture and private equity financing; knowledge of interfacing with startup and big tech; risk management; marketing; and clinical change management.
The one-year post-graduate, non-ACGME accredited training program will couple didactics in innovation and entrepreneurship with first-hand experience in working with early stage companies engaged in design thinking, prototyping, navigation of regulatory processes, intellectual property rights, and business strategy. Programs and partnerships will be chosen to allow rapid exposure to each of these areas while emphasizing the direct linkage to patients and clinical realities. The fellowship will also provide unique opportunities for engagement with carefully curated projects that will maximize exposure to the clinical/innovation/tech interface.
