Hopkins GIM is home to one of the nation's premier fellowship training programs in academic general internal medicine. The GIM Fellowship is proud of our over 200 alumni who have made their mark as researchers, educators, and leaders.

Hopkins GIM Fellows come from across the United States and have a wide array of research interests including clinical epidemiology, preventive medicine, health services research, women's health, health disparities, ethics, and medical education. Due to training grant restrictions, only citizens and permanent residents of the U.S. are eligible to apply.
Hospice and Palliative Medicine Fellowship
The Johns Hopkins Hospice and Palliative Medicine (HPM) Fellowship Training Program received initial accreditation from the ACGME in 2012 and continued accreditation in 2015. The goal of our fellowship is to train specialist palliative medicine physicians who excel as clinicians, teachers, team members, leaders, lifelong learners and catalysts for improving the quality of hospice and palliative medicine across the lifespan and within health systems. The HPM fellowship program is a 12-month clinical fellowship and includes rotations at different facilities, providing a diversity of clinical settings, patient demographics and acuity. Each site has a dedicated HPM Fellowship site director to guide and mentor the fellow through their rotation. Physician faculty members are all specialized in Hospice and Palliative Medicine, and provide clinical supervision and teaching as attending physicians for each of the clinical rotations.

All fellows also have a variety of opportunities to teach residents, medical students or other trainees, as well as participate in research or quality improvement activities.
