The Lown Scholars Program was established in honor of Dr. Bernard Lown, a world-renowned cardiologist and activist, whose career has advanced public health globally.  The Program is designed to create an international cadre of talented health professionals who will use public health tools and strategies to prevent cardiovascular diseases and promote cardiovascular health in developing countries.

 

Since its establishment in 2008, The Lown Scholars Program has supported the work of more than eight dozen Lown Scholars from Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.  This has facilitated productive and long-term collaborations between the Scholars and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health faculty members.
