The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is accepting applications for its Health Policy Research Scholars to cultivate transformational leaders from diverse backgrounds with doctoral training—representing a wide range of research-focused disciplines—who will inform and influence policy toward a Culture of Health.

Donor Name: Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF)

State: All States

County: All Counties

U.S.Territories: America Samoa, Guam, U.S. Virgin Islands, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,

Type of Grant: Grant

Deadline: 03/15/2023

Size of the Grant: $30,000

Details:

Health Policy Research Scholars (HPRS) is a four-year national leadership development program for full-time doctoral students from nonclinical, research-focused disciplines in which policy is a key lever for change (e.g., urban planning; political science; economics; anthropology; education; social work; sociology). HPRS is designed for students who are committed to ensuring their research is aligned with the health needs of communities. The program is focused on doctoral students who want to improve health, well-being, and equity; challenge longstanding, entrenched systems; exhibit new ways of working; collaborate across disciplines and sectors; and bolster their leadership skills. By providing training in health policy, how to think strategically, and how to craft an actionable research question that can inform solutions to advance health equity—as well as mentorship, career and leadership coaching—HPRS will develop a new community of research leaders who will build a Culture of Health in their disciplines and communities.

Specifically, the foundation aims to recruit doctoral students from a variety of fields/disciplines (e.g., urban planning; political science; economics; anthropology; education; engineering; geography; and lab/bench sciences) who are seeking to use policy change to advance population health and health equity. They strongly encourage applications from non health-related disciplines; having scholars from diverse fields is critical to advancing a Culture of Health.
