Who We Are

Our Trainees

Student and Early-Career Engagement

Trainees and fellows work alongside faculty, staff, and external partners on real-world projects that translate academic insight into practical action. Recent projects have included developing the Baltimore Health Dashboard, coordinating Government Service Corps partnerships with Baltimore city agencies, and conducting research on SDOH interventions. These experiences emphasize systems thinking, ethical and responsible innovation, and collaboration across disciplines and sectors.
