KELLOGG SCHOLARS GRANT RENEWED
The Center for the Advancement of Health has been awarded a $2.5 million grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to continue and expand the successful Scholars in Health Disparities program through 2005.
The program is designed to train minority scholars conducting research on understanding health disparities by race, ethnicity, gender and socioeconomic status, the mechanisms that influence health outcomes and interventions and policy alternatives that can be developed to reduce those disparities.
The new grant will enable 20 new minority postdoctoral fellows to conduct research at Harvard University, the University of Michigan, Morgan State University and the University of California, San Francisco. Eight scholars will be chosen for the academic year 2003-2004, and 12 scholars will be chosen for the 2004-2005 year. Scholars receive annual stipends of $50,000, plus benefits and a research budget.
For more information and applications for the Scholars Program, go to www.cfah.org/programs/. The deadline for applications for the 2003-2004 year is January 15, 2003.
