Fellows will begin their program by traveling to Philadelphia to attend the fellowship\u2019s three-week session one, which begins on October 7, 2007.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.faimer.org\/education\/institute\/index.html\">FAIMER Institute<\/a> fellowship program is designed for international health professions educators who have the potential to play key roles at their schools. The program serves two main purposes, to: (1) provide participants with the tools and skills to serve as resources for their individual institutions and (2) create an environment for cross-cultural exchange of educational expertise and experiences. The ultimate goal is to improve the health of local communities by improving health professions education programs. The program will help Fellows develop curricula appropriate to their own schools and communities.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of October, the incoming Institute 2007 Fellows will be joined by returning Institute 2006 Fellows as they complete their final residential session. When the 2007 Fellows complete their final residential session next year, they will meet the incoming Institute 2008 Fellows. These opportunities for interaction between classes of Fellows support the development of a community of international health professions educators dedicated to the improvement of health professions education and the health of their communities.<\/p>\n<p>The FAIMER Institute 2007 Fellows are:<\/p>\n<p>Payal Bansal, M.B.B.S., M.S.
