Global Health Faculty Advisors & Mentors

The Office of Student Research maintains an extensive list of research faculty, many of whom have mentored students in the past or who are interested in serving as mentors in the future. You should be able to contact them relatively easily; email is typically the best way to begin.

The choice of research topic and methodological detail are joint responsibilities of applicants and faculty advisors. Any member of the Yale faculty may serve as a project advisor to applicants.
