The Albert Einstein College of Medicine is one of the nation’s premier institutions for medical education, basic research and clinical investigation.

During the 2010-2011 academic year, Einstein is home to 2,770 faculty members, 724 M.D. students, 256 Ph.D. students, 122 students in the combined M.D./Ph.D. program, and 375 postdoctoral research fellows at our Belfer Institute for Advanced Biomedical Studies. More than 8,000 Einstein alumni are among the nation’s foremost clinicians, biomedical scientists, and medical educators.

When the medical school opened its doors to its first class in 1955, The New York Times was already noting that “the new medical school’s distinguished and talented faculty assured the institution of a place in the ranks of the great medical schools in the world.” This prophecy has been more than fulfilled in the ensuing years.

Einstein also was the only New York City institution selected to participate in the Federal government’s landmark Women’s Health Initiative, and it is now launching an unprecedented, large-scale study of the health status of the Hispanic/Latino community in the Bronx, supported by the NIH.
