The Bloomberg Distinguished Professors (BDP) program is building a group of 130 faculty members whose excellence in research, teaching, and service is centered on interdisciplinary scholarship. A new BDP cluster in Planetary Health aims to build a program at JHU that addresses the challenge of the 21st Century that impacts every other challenge we face. Cluster scholars will synergistically address major gaps in the research agenda and also provide policy solutions that consider local context and methods to effectively implement viable methods of climate change mitigation and adaptation.
This cluster will be closely associated with the Johns Hopkins Institute for Planetary Health and is expected to strengthen and complement the scholarship community that is being assembled and supported through JHIPHs programs and activities. This cluster’s investment in research includes:
- 4 Bloomberg Distinguished Professorships
- 4 Junior Faculty Positions
These faculty, along with the cluster leads, will collaborate along with existing Johns Hopkins faculty on this important area of research. Reach out to [email protected] with suggestions or to learn more.
