Health Equity Fund

The Health Equity Fund (HEF) is a Medical School Executive Council (MSEC) subcommittee that funds student initiatives that promote social and health equity. HEF is a great opportunity to gain seed funding for equity-oriented research projects, student groups, or other socially conscious endeavors.
Awarded grants generally range between $200-$500 and are eligible for six months from the date of the award. All Weill Cornell Medicine medical and MD/PhD students are eligible

The vision of the Cornell Center for Health Equity is to nurture durable academic-community partnerships to inform our research agenda, integrate community perspectives into our research, and develop an infrastructure to disseminate and implement the results of our work with the overarching goal of achieving health equity locally, regionally, and nationally.
