The Journalism & Women Symposium (JAWS) presents a fellowship, now in its 4th year, designed to empower early-career journalists and those new to the health beat who are eager to strengthen their health reporting skills.

Open to women and individuals who identify as women, this fellowship offers a chance to build expertise at a moment when health has become a central thread in nearly every story. Today’s rapidly evolving health landscape means that journalists on every beat are, in many ways, health journalists, and the need for accurate, inclusive and representative reporting has never been greater.
