The following faculty members, associated with each of the four research interest groups, have agreed to serve as mentors or peer mentors to future CAtCH Scholars if scholar research interests align with their own.
Applicants to the program, however, may also propose a mentor not included below, and program leadership will evaluate the mentor based on history of sustained external funding (from NIH or important non-NIH sources) and a history of successful mentoring of trainees and junior faculty members, who have transitioned fully to independence in an academic setting.
