Training Faculty
Our cohort of training faculty includes members of the Executive Committee (EC) —
a rotating group that is responsible for overseeing the PBHS program — and other faculty
who participate in the various activities of the program.
Students finishing their first year of predoctoral research whose major professors
participate in the program as EC members or Trainers are eligible to apply.
