The International Medicine Institute (IMI) mission is to promote the Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine internationally as a global leader in education and training of the next generation of medical healthcare professionals, in the advancement of medicine, innovation and technology as a premier academic medical center and a true medical destination that offers quality healthcare services.

The International Medicine Institute (IMI) at UHealth (the University of Miami Health System at the Miller School of Medicine) has a broad scope. Our team is committed to providing superior educational and training programs for top physicians and medical students from around the world, and we conduct groundbreaking research throughout the world, which is revolutionizing medicine in Latin America.

Our mission is determined to expand the institute’s impact on healthcare, education and research on a global scale.

What does all this look like in practice? Through the IMI’s gateway to medical training, we have empowered physicians and medical students from around the hemisphere and around the globe through the William J. Harrington Medical Training Programs for Latin America and the Caribbean and our Global Observership Program. Our research has unlocked unprecedented progress in cardiology and other specialties such as The International Interventional Structural Heart Disease Fellowship Program.

Driving our broad scope and ambitious mission are some of our core principles. We believe healthcare can and must be accessible, innovative and patient-centric. We also believe in transferring knowledge through educational programs that build healthcare capacity globally and support the development of healthcare and academic institutions abroad.

We invite you — patients, physicians, students and donors — to join our international community and benefit from our cutting-edge programs and services at UHealth at the Miller School of Medicine.
