Uplifting the next generation of diverse health care leaders.
About us
At NMF we are uplifting the next generation of diverse health care leaders through scholarships, service-learning opportunities & diversifying clinical research. The critical financial support that we provide aims to lessen the significant barrier of the high cost of medical education thereby making education more accessible to medical students from groups underrepresented in medicine. This support makes a difference: evidence shows that physicians of color are more likely than others to practice in underserved communities, and to advocate for health equity in both the public and private sectors. Today more than 32,000 health care leaders are NMF alumni—that is, they received support from NMF early in their careers. Our alumni are practicing physicians, researchers, educators, policy makers, philanthropic leaders and health care administrators—many of them leaders in U.S. efforts to promote excellence in health care. Our goal is to ensure that every American has access to physicians and health care professionals who speak their language, understand their culture, and are committed to working in underserved communities. NMF is dismantling systemic and structural racism that stands in the way of our achieving these goals. We invite you to join us in this fight to achieve health equity.

Pharmacists are essential pillars in our community, dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of those around us. This American Pharmacists Month, I am proud to shine a spotlight on the invaluable contributions pharmacists make each and every day. From answering patients' questions, to helping them manage their medications, pharmacists are an #indispensible part of our communities. Hear from Nick, a recent pharmacy school graduate and recipient of the J&J and the National Medical Fellowships, Inc. Alliance for Inclusion in Medicine (AIM) Scholarship, as he shares the importance of building strong relationships with his patients as a population health pharmacist. Join us and American Pharmacists Association in celebrating pharmacists and share what they mean to you using #Indispensable. https://lnkd.in/e7_Qkeyd #APhM2024 #CaringForOurCommunities

It's National Latino Physicians Day! 🎉 Today, we honor the invaluable contributions of Latine physicians, who are essential in addressing health disparities within their communities. With Latine and Hispanic populations making up 19% of the U.S. population but only about 6% of practicing physicians (source: AAMC), there’s a critical need to bridge the gap and ensure access to culturally competent care. At NMF, we’re dedicated to supporting and empowering underrepresented medical professionals, including Latine physicians, through scholarships, mentorship, and leadership development. We also train physicians to become clinical investigators through our NMF Diversity in Clinical Trials Research program. Together, we’re working toward a future where health care is equitable and accessible for all. Join us in celebrating the incredible impact of Latine physicians today and every day! #NationalLatinoPhysiciansDay #HealthEquity #NMF #DiversityInMedicine #LatinePhysicians
