Training Faculty

The training faculty consists of Brown faculty located throughout the university. Various specialties from the professional disciplines of anthropology, medicine, pharmacology, public health, psychology and sociology are represented. In addition, since 1995 selected faculty from the Heller School at Brandeis University have been appointed as adjunct faculty and can serve as mentors for Fellows receiving training in conducting alcohol health service research. All share an interest in alcohol and substance abuse intervention and treatment research.
