New York, NY (February 5, 2026)—New York Academy of Medicine, in collaboration with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), is pleased to announce that the 2026-2028 Jeremiah A. Barondess Fellowship in the Clinical Transaction is awarded to Bryan Broderick, MD, MEHP. The Barondess Fellowship is reserved for a nationally recognized pioneer in pediatric medicine. Dr. Broderick is associate program director in the Internal Medicine Residency Program and assistant professor of medicine at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.
The Barondess Fellowship is awarded to junior faculty members in internal medicine to enhance medical students’ and residents’ training in the clinical transaction, a fundamental element of clinical care that encompasses obtaining a patient’s thorough clinical history, performing an accurate physical examination, and applying clinical reasoning to these findings. Dr. Broderick expressed gratitude and enthusiasm prior to receiving the honor while recognizing the importance of modeling the foundational skills related to the clinical transaction.
“In modern training environments, the bedside can easily be crowded out by competing demands, despite its enduring importance to diagnosis and patient care. This fellowship provides an opportunity to intentionally reintegrate bedside examination and diagnostic reasoning into everyday clinical practice. I am deeply grateful to New York Academy of Medicine and the ACGME for their support, and I am excited to build a program that strengthens how trainees learn to think, examine, and care for patients.” Dr. Broderick said.
Dr. Broderick’s two-year, $50,000 fellowship will empower him to teach clinicians how they should interpret and apply social factors of health data in the clinical care of patients to improve patient outcomes.
“We are very excited to award this year’s Barondess Fellowship to Dr. Broderick. He recognizes the key role of social determinants of health and addresses them to improve health in people and populations,” said New York Academy of Medicine President and CEO Ann Kurth, PhD, CNM, MPH. “Meeting the training needs of residents will help strengthen their understanding of patient needs and providing necessary care across the healthspan.”
Dr. Broderick was trained at Johns Hopkins University in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, and Medical Education. As a trainee at Johns Hopkins University, he was mentored by Dr. Bryan Garibaldi, a former Barondess Fellow who now is the founding director of the Center for Bedside Medicine at Northwestern University.
“The Barondess Fellowship honors a legacy of excellence in the clinical transaction, and Dr. Broderick exemplifies that spirit,” said ACGME President and Chief Executive Officer Debra Weinstein, MD. “His project will help foster a culture that prioritizes patient-centered assessment and clinical reasoning reinforced, not replaced, by modern technology.”
The ACGME recognized Dr. Broderick at its Annual Educational Conference, in San Diego, CA, from February 19-21, 2026.
