NIGMS Integrated Training in the Population, Behavioral, and Biomedical Sciences

NIGMS Integrated Training in the Population, Behavioral, and Biomedical Sciences

This program is a collaborative arrangement between Health Psychology and California Center for Population Research (Cameron Campbell, PI; Julienne Bower, CoPI). It is funded to train predoctoral students from behavioral and social sciences in biomedical theory, evidence, and methods and mentors them to integrate these approaches into health psychology and population health research. The overarching goal is to train interdisciplinary investigators who examine complex pathways through which demographic, socioeconomic, and psychological processes influence and are influenced by health and disease.
