The principal aim of the MFP is to provide financial support, professional development activities, and guidance to promising doctoral students and postdoctoral trainees with the goal of moving them toward high achievement in areas related to ethnic minority behavioral health research or services.

Norvell Wellington Brown, BA(c)

"Hello,  I'm Norvel Wellington Brown, a Psychology BA candidate at the Honors College of  the University of South Carolina, Columbia. I am interested in researching  whether depression, stress exposure, and
discrimination, explain ethnic  differences in clinical health care utilization/ cancer screening in lower  income communities. I hope to go to medical school in  pursuit of an MD-MPH  degree in an effort to not only treat illness but to also  be able to help  prevent illness.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, traveling,  volunteering and  creating poetry and visual art."
