Subcommittees
The Center for Global Health Equity currently has five specialized subcommittees. Subcommittees are volunteer-based opportunities to contribute to CGHE programming, research, and appointments will run one calendar year with the possibility of extension.
Research
Contribute to global health scholarship and research for faculty and students by refining application and scoring rubrics for training grants and abstract submissions, and continuing to strengthen the mentor-matching program. Future priorities include training and support for junior faculty on non-federal funding.
Research Co-Chairs
Program
Contribute to programming and agenda design for prominent CGHE initiatives, including the Paul J. Galkin Global Health Grand Rounds, the Global Health & Equity Symposium, and the Annual Faculty and Fellow Retreat.
