"The Health Policy program directors [of the NIMH training grant] are extremely dedicated to providing a high quality training experience and they are great role models as leaders in the field of mental health policy and economics.  The quality of my training experience and the opportunity to work on important research studies in mental health policy as a trainee were both instrumental to my dedication to pursuing a research career as an academic in this field after graduation.  The program directors have continued to support me as mentors since graduating, and I have consulted them regularly for career advice over the years."
