Corewell Health is the new name for Beaumont.

At Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital, we are thrilled to announce the availability of grant funding specifically earmarked for research in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) within the field of Emergency Medicine. Recognizing the critical importance of fostering a healthcare landscape that is inclusive and equitable for all, we are committed to supporting innovative research initiatives that address disparities and promote diversity within our specialty.

As part of our mission to advance patient care and education, we understand the significance of exploring DEI-related challenges and opportunities in Emergency Medicine. By investing in residents who are passionate about driving positive change in this realm, we aim to empower future leaders to tackle complex issues and contribute meaningfully to the advancement of healthcare equity.

This funding opportunity not only provides financial support but also serves as a testament to our unwavering dedication to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment where all voices are heard and valued. We encourage interested residents to seize this opportunity to make a difference and propel our mission forward.
