One-year Fellowships

To apply, students should follow the instructions found here, and complete and submit their application for a Yale sponsored one-year fellowship to OSR via Medtrics. Students must include a completed Signature Page with their application, which includes signatures from their Mentor. You can download the Signature Page here.

Important note: If you are interested in applying to any of the one year medical student research fellowships, please contact OSR at least 4 weeks before the institutional fellowship deadline as there may be additional forms that are required to be completed through Yale's Office of Sponsored Projects before the fellowship application can be submitted to the funding agency. Also, all applications require a progress letter from the academic advisor. Students should contact their academic advisor at least one month prior to the fellowship deadline.

The application deadline to submit the Yale sponsored one-year fellowship application is April 8, 2024. Applications must include all components to be considered complete.

Students awarded a fully funded one-year medical student research fellowship will be required to participate in the following activities.

• Attend an in-person orientation meeting on July 1, 2025, from 9:30-10:30am. Faculty mentors are strongly encouraged to attend this orientation meeting.
• A 10-minute presentation of one’s research at seminars held in the fall and spring.
• Attend research seminars in the fall and spring.
• Attend didactic sessions focused on research skills development.

Medical students who are awarded a fully funded one-year medical student research fellowship and plan to apply to the joint MD/MHS degree program should review the requirements. Please note the dates of the required, in-person coursework and plan accordingly. Only medical students who are awarded one-year medical student research fellowships are eligible to apply to the joint MD/MHS degree program.

The Office of Student Research has funds to support a limited number of students through Yale sponsored fellowships. A separate application is required. For additional information, please contact the Office of Student Research.
