[PHNUTR-L] Post-MPH fellowship wanted

[Kumagai, Shoko]

I am seeking a post-MPH fellowship or similar work opportunity in community nutrition area.

I am in the Nutritional Sciences Program at the University of Washington and will receive my MPH degree in December.
I am from Japan, where I received a BS in nutrition & food sciences as well as an RD licensure.
In the long term, I would like to pursue a PhD and return to Japan to work as an academic/professional educator in public health nutrition. Currently in Japan, graduate level education in public health nutrition is in its infancy, and I am aiming to become a pioneer in the development of this field.

I experienced community-based participatory research as my MPH practicum. I think that collaboration between community and academic sector is the future of public health research in Japan. Therefore, I want to continue developing my skills in planning, operating, and/or evaluating such research.

Please contact me at sk22 at u.washington.edu or at 206-898-3725 if you are or know of someone looking for a motivated, very organized, enthusiastic post-MPH.
