Fellows Feb 2023

Join us for a yearlong program that includes:

  • A self-directed integrative health curriculum, expertly crafted by faculty from the Osher Collaborative.
  • Monthly mentored case presentations. Fellows are grouped within their specialty to facilitate case-based learning and discussions on patient treatment plans.
  • A mentored scholarly project, which can encompass clinical, educational, and/or research dimensions.

Osher Collaborative Faculty Fellows should integrate integrative health principles into their ongoing patient care within their clinical setting. The time dedicated to this will evolve as your knowledge base expands and should align with your goals for integrative patient care. The content will be tailored to your practice.

Upon program completion, eligible scholars may sit for the American Board of Integrative Medicine (ABOIM) exam.
