The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health & Society Scholars program is
designed to build the nation’s capacity for research, leadership and
policy change to address the multiple determinants of population health.
The program is based on the principle that progress in the field of
population health depends upon multidisciplinary collaboration and
exchange. Its goal is to improve health by training scholars to:
* investigate rigorously the connections among biological, genetic,
behavioral, environmental, economic and social determinants of health;
and
* develop, evaluate and disseminate knowledge and interventions that
integrate and act on these determinants to improve health.
The program is intended to produce leaders who will change the questions
asked, the methods employed to analyze problems, and the range of
solutions to reduce population health disparities and improve the health
of all Americans.
The online application is available and we hope that you are forwarding
this link to any potential candidates.
