In a new blog post, Robin Osborn, M.B.A., vice president and director of The Commonwealth Fund's International Program in Health Policy and Innovation, introduces the 2012–13 Harkness Fellows in Health Care Policy and Practice and describes their projects. Harkness Fellows are midcareer professionals from abroad who spend a year in the United States studying a critical issue on the health policy agenda. Established in 1925, the Harkness Fellowships were modeled after the Rhodes Scholarships and are The Commonwealth Fund's longest-running program.
