The Vivien Thomas Scholars Initiative will host an informational webinar for prospective applicants on Thursday, Nov. 4 at 5 p.m. The $150 million initiative, backed by Bloomberg Philanthropies, will create new pathways for students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Serving Institutions to pursue and earn PhDs in STEM fields.
As PhD students at Johns Hopkins, Vivien Thomas Scholars will receive the academic and financial support needed to ensure their success, including up to six years of full tuition support, a stipend, health insurance and other benefits, along with significant mentorship, research, professional development and community-building opportunities.
