Seeking to foster and promote opportunities for advanced Talmudic study for women, Yeshiva University, with the support of the Avi Chai Foundation, created the Graduate Program for Women in Advanced Talmudic Studies (GPATS). The goal of this fellowship is to develop an elite cadre of female scholars of Talmud and Halakha (Jewish law) who will serve as leaders and role models for the Orthodox Jewish community.
The program comprises a sequential two-year curriculum. In the morning, students prepare Talmudic texts with a chavruta (study partner) and attend a lecture on the material they have prepared. In the afternoon, students shift their focus to the study of Halakha, tracing its origins from the biblical texts on through the Talmud, Rishonim, and modern day poskim (rabbinic authorities). In addition, students attend lectures on various topics such as Jewish philosophy and Jewish history.
A majority of our students are also pursuing advanced degrees in Jewish Studies and/or Jewish Education. Students who complete the two-year GPATS program are awarded a certificate in Advanced Talmudic Studies from Yeshiva University. In 2006, GPATS at Yeshiva University expanded to offer an intensive two-year senior fellowship to two program graduates. The senior fellows continue their rigorous study of Talmud and Halakha and play a leading role in expanding GPATS’ educational programs in various communities.

The Albert Einstein College of Medicine is one of the nation’s premier institutions for medical education, basic research and clinical investigation. A full-time faculty of more than 2,000 teaches, delivers health care and conducts research in every major biomedical specialty. From an original class size of 56, the College of Medicine has evolved into one of the largest medical schools in the country. Today, the student body includes 750 M.D. students, 394 Ph.D. students attending the Sue Golding Graduate Division, (117 of whom are in the combined M.D./Ph.D. program), and approximately 360 postdoctoral investigators currently receiving advance training at our Belfer Institute for Advanced Biomedical Studies. Approximately 7,000 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.” Among its pioneering educational initiatives, Einstein was among the first of the major medical schools to integrate bedside experience with learning, bringing first-year students into contact with patients and linking classroom study to case experience. In addition, the College of Medicine is widely known for its socially conscious approach to medicine. During the 1970s and 1980s it was a pioneer in the development of medical ethics as an accepted academic discipline in medical school curricula. Einstein was also the first private medical school in New York City to establish an academic Department of Family Medicine (1993), and it created New York’s first residency program in internal medicine with an emphasis on women’s health (1994).
The medical school is affiliated with five hospital centers: Montefiore Medical Center, The University Hospital of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine; Beth Israel Medical Center, the University Hospital and Manhattan Campus for the Albert Einstein College of Medicine; North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, the Manhasset and New Hyde Park campuses of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine; Jacobi Medical Center; and the Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center. It is also affiliated with three mental health facilities and four long-term care facilities. Through its extensive affiliation network, Einstein runs the largest post-graduate medical training program in the United States, offering some 150 residency programs to more than 2,500 physicians in training.

Yeshiva University's - Sue Golding Graduate Division is located at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Jack and Pearl Resnick Campus, 1300 Morris Park Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461. Since 1957, the Sue Golding Graduate Division of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine has provided a stimulating environment in which students acquire the knowledge and skills to attain the PhD and MD / PhD degrees and become independent scientists holding academic and industrial positions worldwide.
The Graduate Division provides an extremely collegial and mentored training experience where you will work personally with advisers at the cutting-edge of disease-relevant research in areas as diverse as genomics/proteomics, stem cell biology, cancer biology, and vaccine development. A great feature of the graduate program is its breadth. Graduate students at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine often undertake interdisciplinary projects which draw on the scientific expertise of faculty in the basic science and clinical departments, resulting in faculty and senior graduate students publishing widely and having their work often cited both in professional journals and in the news.
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), established the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) in 1964 to support research training leading to the combined MD/PhD degree. The program was designed to train investigators who could better bridge the gap between basic science and clinical research by providing both graduate training in the biomedical sciences and clinical training offered through medical schools. What began in 1964 with three programs has now grown to almost 40 MSTP programs.
The Albert Einstein College of Medicine's MSTP was one of the three original programs started in 1964, and continues its revolutionary and successful tradition. Continuously funded by the National Institutes of Health, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine's MSTP is larger than most others of its kind, enabling the program to have an administrative and academic identity. It is still small enough, however, to provide MSTP students with the integrated and individual attention their unique careers require. This combination has resulted in an outstanding record of placing its graduates in highly desirable post-graduate training positions and in successful academic careers.
