The DOC Fellows Program

in partnership with buck institute

The DOC Fellows program ensures the inclusion of diverse scientific, academic, and entrepreneurial perspectives from emerging voices alongside those from established leaders in medicine, science, business and culture.

DONATE

DOC Fellows are distinguished community members awarded a comprehensive scholarship to the annual DOC gathering. Fellows are supported by the DOC community, which funds the program with directed charitable donations. Benefits include all registration fees, two nights of accommodations, and participation in a Fellows track of programming at the event. If you are able to provide support and help these valuable contributors join us in October, we strongly encourage you to make a donation, via our partnership with The Buck Institute.
