​The fellowship begins with an in-hospital immersion where fellows identify at least 200 needs. Teams:

• Select the most promising needs
• Prototype and test solutions
• Explore patent, regulatory, and reimbursement issues
• Develop operational and business plans to advance the project. Fellows work with the medicine, engineering, and business faculty at Stanford as well as prominent Silicon Valley inventors, CEOs, venture capitalists, and advisors.

 
Following interviews at Stanford University, 12 successful candidates will be awarded fellowships, including tuition and salary support. Stanford believes that personal and professional diversity inspires creativity in its teams and helps them innovate effectively for different patient populations. The Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign values the unique path of each applicant and encourages people of historically underrepresented groups to apply.
