Telling the story of the fellowship experience would not be complete without knowing the perspective of those who work with them daily to develop their technical and professional skill sets – the CDC Mentors and Host Office Officials.
Tonya Ross Walker, the Deputy Branch Chief for the Division of Global HIV & TB’s Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch, is one of these individuals. Although she does not participate as formal mentor with the PHI/CDC Global Health Fellowship Program, Tonya works closely with the Fellows and regularly advocates for Fellows’ continued involvement in CDC’s global health efforts.
