About BRIGHT

The BRIGHT program is a specialty-training track within the Brown residency programs formed by residents and faculty members at Brown who have a passion for global health. Every year we accept applications from residents in the Med-Peds, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Triple board, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, and Neurology programs at Brown. There is a two year long online curriculum that is made available to participating residents and quarterly lectures given by global health faculty. Throughout the year, we gather for in-person lectures, film screenings, and social activities to further build the global health community here at Brown. Residents in the program are required to complete a scholarly activity and presentation prior to graduation. For those residents fulfilling these requirements, residents will be granted a Global Health Certificate at graduation.
