HBHE Alumna,

As Chair of the 2013-14 Faculty Search Committee, I am extremely pleased to announce that the search for an HBHE Assistant Professor in Global Public Health has now culminated. Dr. Elizabeth King has officially accepted our offer to join the HBHE faculty as of September 2014.

We are very excited to have Dr. King join us from her current position at the Center for Interdisciplinary Research on AIDS at Yale University. She has a Ph.D. (2010) in Health Behavior & Health Education from University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill and a M.P.H. (2005) in Global Health from Yale University. Her research has focused on gender, HIV and STI-related issues, especially in Eastern Europe.  Over the next few years, Dr. King will expand both our teaching and our research capabilities in Global Public Health and qualitative research methods.

Brian J. Zikmund-Fisher

Chair, HBHE Faculty Search Committee 2013-2014
