Public Health Fellowship Program
The Center for Health Law Policy and Bioethics established a public health fellowship program in 2020 in the immediate wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was originally established to address the complex and critical questions of law, policy and ethics arising the COVID-19 global pandemic. Since then, the fellowship program has evolved to expand its reach to all areas of health law policy and bioethics research.
