The Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics is inviting students to complete their studies with some less financial burdens with the help of its Petrie-Flom Student Fellowship. The awards are made available for all Harvard graduate students who will be enrolled at the university during the fellowship year.
The program aims to support Harvard graduate students who are interested in studying independent scholarly projects which are related to health law policy, biotechnology, and bioethics. The foundation will hand over a decent amount for recipient higher education.
The Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy was founded in 2005 by a gift from Joseph H. Flom or the Carroll and Milton Petrie Foundation. The Center’s founding mission is to promote interdisciplinary analysis and legal scholarship in these fields.
