Summer Institute Program to Increase Diversity (SIPID)
Faculty and Advisors
The team of multidisciplinary experts that have partnered to provide the didactic training are a group of renowned scientists, many of whom already collaborate to conduct research in health disparities under the auspices of the BHDRC. Mentors include senior faculty, established researchers and experienced mentors in the fields of clinical and basic cardiovascular disease research. Partnerships with community-based organizations also aid in providing training in the conduct of community-based participatory research, an important and innovative approach to preventive medicine. The work of the Institute is accomplished in the context of Brooklyn, New York, a model urban setting in which to conduct health disparities and cardiovascular disease research.
