We are proud to honor the trainees in our fifth cohort of the BCPH Fellowship for Thought Leadership. Originally known as the HPHR Fellowship Program, the Thought Leadership program provides a platform, training, and support network for the next generation of public health thought leaders and public scholars to explore and grow their voice. Participants engage in training program, from which several are selected to produce content. Their work will be published on HPHR.org and BCPH.org, and be featured on BCPH social media platforms, as well as that of each respective Fellow.
