2009 Clinical Scholars National Meeting - La Jolla, CA - National Advisory Committee
The
National Advisory Committee of the Robert Wood Johnson
Clinical Scholars program is involved in a wide range
of activities including program design, scholar selection,
training site selection and training site oversight.
Scholars will have a unique opportunity to interact
with the medical leaders who serve on the program’s
National Advisory Committee. The program will assign
each scholar a NAC mentor, who will discuss career development
and other issues, to complement the mentors at the participating
university. The NAC mentors will meet with the scholars
in person at the program’s annual meetings, and
will be available throughout the year as required.
The National Advisory Committee members are national
leaders in health and health care who have been selected
not only because of their prestige but their commitment
to the goals of this program and its scholars.
