UJMT CONTEST
UJMT CONTEST

How has the UJMT Fogarty Global Health Fellows Program helped you grow as a person and as a professional?
Call for Contributions
How have you grown from your UJMT experience as a researcher, mentee or mentor? The purpose of this contest is to engage UJMT partners (in-country collaborators, fellows, alumni, and others) to reflect on their experience and create messages to showcase the program. The UJMT experience is rich and rewarding, providing a springboard for further global health research and opening doors for careers. For example, alumni Stephen Pan noted: “supported by outstanding mentors and staff, the UJMT program enabled me to work alongside leading global health researcher teams and successfully transition from graduate school to university faculty.”
