Now in its 10th year, the Cordiero Summer Research Fellowship has funded undergraduate research projects for more than 100 students.
In celebration, the first-ever Cordeiro Symposium was held in March 2015, and more than 50 former fellowship recipients attended from all over the world. Participants reunited with their cohorts, discussed what their fellow graduates are doing now, and heard from leading health experts including Richard Frank, Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; Gary Gottlieb, CEO, Partners In Health; David Blumenthal, President and CEO of The Commonwealth Fund; Sandra Lynne Fryhofer ’12, Director of Delivery System Reform in the Office of Health Reform, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; David Cutler, Otto Eckstein Professor of Applied Economics; and Joseph Newhouse, John D. MacArthur Professor of Health Policy and Management. The day-long symposium culminated with a celebratory dinner at the Brookline home of GHHP faculty chair David Cutler.
