The Clinician Leadership in Quality and Safety Scholarly Concentration is designed for 4th-year medical students and Ph.D. nursing students with an interest in quality improvement in healthcare. The program builds quality improvement and leadership skills of future clinicians and nurse researchers. These skills are developed around the science of improving access, cost, effectiveness, equity, and safety in patient care. Learning is longitudinal, mentored, and experiential.
