Our Partnership With Brown Medical School

Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University logoRhode Island, The Miriam and Bradley hospitals are teaching hospitals for the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University—the only medical school in Rhode Island. In 2005, 556 medical residents and fellows were enrolled in the graduate medical education programs at Rhode Island Hospital, The Miriam Hospital and Bradley Hospital. Lifespan hospitals provide the principal sites for clinical training of approximately 175 third—and fourth-year students at Brown University.

As of the fall of 2005, 337 Brown Medical School graduates lived in Rhode Island—about eight percent of the state’s physicians. Lifespan’s graduate medical education department plays an important role in attracting, developing and retaining medical talent in the state.

In addition, as a result of Lifespan's relationship with the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, exciting research projects are underway that are improving patient care.
