Support

The department's more than 30 funded research projects are supported by the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Health Resources and Services Administration, Association of Schools of Public Health, and private foundations such as the American Legacy Foundation and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. 

The department is also supported by faculty in the schools of Medicine and Nursing and in Emory's graduate programs of anthropology, sociology,  and the Institute of Liberal Arts. Leading health educators and behavioral scientists from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Georgia Department of Human Resources, the American Cancer Society, the Arthritis Foundation, and The Carter Center serve as adjunct faculty who teach and work closely with students.
