The Early Stage Investigators (ESI) group meets monthly and is open to any junior investigator (faculty, postdoc or clinical fellows, residents, students, or staff) interested in or currently conducting global health research.  

This group:

  • Convenes external early-stage investigators, including international partners who are also early-stage investigators
  • Creates and nurtures a community of global health early-stage investigators at WashU, including peer support
  • Provides a platform for deeper engagement, sharing, and structured feedback plus a review of current and future global health research methods, projects and proposals, including work-in-progress and mock study section activities
  • Enables sharing of experiences, knowledge, and resources related to common global health research challenges and opportunities, including but not limited to ethics and research regulations

If you are interested in joining the Global Health ESI group, contact the Global Health Center at globalhealthcenter@wustl.edu.
