Linde Family Institute for Primary Care

Primary Care Leadership Training

The Linde Fellowship Program at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) was funded by a generous gift from the Linde Family Foundation in 2013. The one-year fellowships are designed to support Early- and mid-career primary care physicians with leadership roles with the skills needed to become influential leaders in the primary care practices.
