In August 2000, Harvard Medical School, one of the world's preeminent institutions in medical education and research, became the flagship medical-content partner of InteliHealth. For Harvard Medical School, this partnership represents an expansion of the work of the Harvard Health Publications division, which has disseminated timely, accurate, and thorough medical information to the public for the last 35 years.
A core editorial faculty works closely with InteliHealth staff to create new content and to review articles and other content for clinical accuracy and relevance. Numerous contributing editors on the medical-school faculty with expertise ranging from pediatrics to geriatrics also work with the core faculty to maintain the highest possible standards for all content. Content developed specifically by the medical school is included throughout the site and is clearly labeled. For further information, see our editorial policy.
Harvard Medical School is one of the world's preeminent institutions in medical education and research. The student body comprises more than 700 men and women in the M.D. program, more than 700 students in the Ph.D. program, and of those many are in the joint M.D.-Ph.D. programs, part of which is sponsored in collaboration with Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
