Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellowship
The Division of Hospital-Based Medicine launched the first Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellowship in Illinois in July 2015, and our program became the first ACGME-accredited PHM fellowship in the state in 2020. The fellowship program was founded to promote the development of leaders in academic pediatric hospital medicine and leverages the clinical and academic assets on the joint medical campuses of Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago and Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine

Fellows engage in diverse clinical experiences at our top-ranked, free-standing tertiary care children’s hospital, Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, and in newborn care at Northwestern Medicine Prentice Women’s Hospital. Fellows benefit from protected time for scholarship and dedicated mentorship to support the development, completion, and publication of a scholarly project. A core clinical curriculum lecture series and quality improvement education are included, as well as the option to pursue advanced degrees at Northwestern University. Our fellows are eligible to apply for tuition support for these advanced degree programs.
