Description

This poster describes interdisciplinary engagement as a framework for research mentoring of students in an MCH Pipeline Training Program. Diversity within the cohort of students, research topics/populations, methodologies, and disciplines anchors the peer interactions and interdisciplinary expectations of this approach to training. Trainee outcomes include early interdisciplinary interaction skills and enhanced awareness of the breadth of populations, practice, and research within the field of Maternal and Child Health.
