At Yale School of Medicine, we pursue collaborative excellence through the intentional cultivation of a broad range of perspectives and experiences to advance the three pillars of our mission: educating and nurturing leaders in medicine and science, advancing discovery and innovation, and caring for patients with compassion while improving the health of all.
With the goal of elevating the next generation of leaders in medicine and science, we are committed to best practices in recruiting, supporting, mentoring, and sponsoring highly qualified and talented individuals. Our dedication to collaborative excellence is embodied by teams working closely together and using open, respectful communication to shape an interconnected, engaged, and productive community, which in turn allows individuals and innovation to thrive.
Through curiosity, partnership, and exchange of knowledge, our commitment to collaborative excellence is integral to enhancing the health and lives of those in New Haven and our regional, national, and global communities.
