Emergency Medicine Simulation Fellowship

The Emergency Medicine Simulation Fellowship, offered by NYU Langone’s Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine, trains graduates of emergency medicine residency programs to become leaders in medical simulation.

Fellows in this one- or two-year postgraduate program gain skills as educators, scholars, and patient safety advocates. They design simulation-based courses for graduate, undergraduate, and professional medical education programs, and participate in rigorous debriefing training and coaching sessions. They also develop a strong education portfolio and foundational skills in safety and quality improvement.

Working with division faculty, fellows use in situ simulation as a tool for health systems testing in collaboration with our operations and patient safety leadership. This allows fellows to gain skills in applied human factors and systems design. We also encourage our fellows to participate in simulation program development that furthers patient safety initiatives and interdepartmental collaboration.
