Family physicians are in a unique position to research the impact of disease at different life stages, to study how social relations and values shape health and disease, and to develop interventions to improve the health of individuals and populations. Yet the "law of inverse opportunity" holds — there is a dearth of well-trained family physician researchers.
The Department of Family Medicine and Community Health at the University of Pennsylvania offers a diversity of faculty expertise. At present, we offer three fellowship opportunities. Fellows are given options for specialty training which include our Global Health Fellowship, Population Health Fellowship, Primary Care Sports Medicine Fellowship, and Addiction Medicine fellowship.
