Advisory Committee Members
Our Education Advisory Committee oversees the administration of the Education Program in Cancer Prevention. This committee consists of faculty members from both the basic science and clinical areas, including all four department chairs within the Division of Cancer Prevention and Population Sciences and the Division’s Vice President. All of these faculty members are engaged in a wide variety of peer-reviewed, externally funded, cancer prevention research. In addition, the Advisory Committee reviews fellowship pre-applications (Pre-doc, Postdoc and Summer Students) and recommend mentors.
