Trainees

A major objective of the Yale-SCOR, is to train new investigators who will conduct cutting-edge translational interdisciplinary research with an emphasis on women’s health and tobacco use. Our training/mentoring plan recruits new investigators from multiple entry levels, ranging from undergraduate and graduate students to postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty members, and involves them in research addressing specific questions on sex- and gender-differences in tobacco use and treatment. If you are interested in learning more or inquiring about available positions, please contact sherry.mckee@yale.edu.

The SCOR mechanism has provided us the opportunity to mentor and train new investigators both at Yale and other universities.
