Institutional Partnerships That Actually Use What You Already Have
Universities, hospitals, and research institutes bring exactly what the Academy needs — faculty expertise, data access, and lab space — without having to build a training program from scratch.
Who Partners With Us
Three kinds of institutional partnerships, each solving a different piece of the puzzle.
Faculty & Credit
Faculty mentor students directly, co-develop or review research-area course content, and — for the Undergraduate track — explore credit-transfer arrangements so Academy coursework counts toward a student's degree.
Hospitals & Health Systems
Clinical Mentorship & Data
Clinician-researchers mentor Medical Student and Clinician track participants, and health systems can provide de-identified data access appropriate to specific research area projects.
Deep Domain Expertise
Especially valuable for narrower areas like Rare & Undiagnosed Disease, where a disease-specific institute or foundation may be the only realistic source of both mentorship and registry access.
What Partnership Looks Like in Practice
Partnerships are modular — most institutions start with one of these and expand from there.
