AHCJ Regional Health Journalism Fellowship application deadline

AHCJ Regional Health Journalism Program: West

The Association of Health Care Journalists has created this program with the support of The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. Through our Center for Excellence in Health Care Journalism, we select 10-12 journalists annually from a specific region of the country for this special opportunity. The 2013-14 fellowship class will come from Arizona, California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. 

The aim of the program is to provide already-established journalists with the tools needed to improve the depth and amount of coverage focused on localizing critical health issues. The program is designed by journalists for journalists. Although the training is spread over a year’s time, actual time away from the newsroom totals about two weeks.

Health Data Initiative Forum IV: Health Datapalooza

On June 3 – 4, 2013 some of the biggest names in health, data, tech, business and venture capital will convene at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, DC.  Bigger than last year, join us to explore, advance and demonstrate the power of data through the collective meeting of the best minds in the public and private healthcare and tech sectors.
