Community Answers
The interview panel wants to gauge your interest in their institution and fellowship program. They are asking this question to see how much time you've invested in learning about them.
Avoid answering with generalities like, "Your institution is highly respected and well-known." Instead, spend time researching the institution and program before the interview so you can cite details and specifics that solidify your interest in the program. Your answer to this question very likely plays a role in whether or not the program ranks you.
"I know that your institution sees a really diverse patient population, including those from the neighboring community, where there isn't specialized medical care available. I'm also impressed by the rate of grant approval over the last five years and have read great things about your fellowship orientation program and really appreciate the efforts that go into helping fellows succeed. What I like most is the program in place for parents with babies in the NICU to learn more about caring for their newborn."
