Yale-Howard Scholars
   
 
The Yale-Howard Scholars Program offers an exciting opportunity for students to develop research skills through projects related to the elimination of health disparities. Five students are chosen annually and are paired with a nurse researcher at Yale University. Through one-on-one mentoring, scholars conduct an independent research project and make a scholarly research presentation of their results. The following is a list of Yale-Howard Scholars and their research.
