TIME to
CULTIVATE New Leaders
SIDM is made up of clinicians, researchers, quality leaders, patients, and families who are committed to improving diagnostic quality. But we know that support and mentorship in diagnostic research, education, and clinical practice is key to creating a culture of diagnostic quality. The SIDM Fellowship in Diagnostic Excellence program helps researchers, educators, informaticists, and quality leaders build their expertise and engagement in the field of diagnostic quality and safety. This year’s Fellows are working on projects that examine bias, stewardship of resources, communication, and medical errors through the lens of improving diagnostic quality and safety. Our previous fellows have established themselves as leaders in the diagnostic quality movement, producing peer-reviewed research, and implementing innovations in their home institutions. 2019 SIDM Fellows.
