The overall goal of the program is to provide predoctoral candidates and postdoctoral fellows training in the pathobiology and/or outcomes, prevention, and epidemiology as it relates to pulmonary/ critical care/ sleep disorders.

We support 4 postdoctoral fellows and 4 graduate students in each cohort, across multiple training backgrounds, including Brown University, the medical school, and all associated teaching hospitals. 

The predoctoral training program continues to focus on the pathobiology of respiratory diseases and to capitalize on strengths in the areas of infection and immunity.  The postdoctoral training program consists of two inter-related tracks —pathobiology of respiratory diseases plus health services/ outcomes and epidemiology of respiratory diseases.

The Brown Respiratory Research Training Program (BRRTP) is funded by grant T32HL134625 from the National Heart, Blood, and Lung Institute of the National Institutes of Health since 2017.
