Welcome to our Kessler Foundation “Fellows on the go” podcast series. I’m Joan Banks-Smith, host, editor, and producer of this podcast. I met with Drs. Silvana Costa, former chief fellow, and our current chief fellow, Erica Weber, and talked about the Foundation’s fellowship program, and what to expect as a research fellow here.
Kessler Foundation’s fellowship has been around since 1999, and past fellows include Drs. Abhijit Das, Director of Medical Rehabilitation and Neurorehabilitation at the Institute of Neurosciences in India; Allison Cernich, Director of the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research in Bethesda, MD; and our very own Nancy Chiaravalloti, Director of Neuropsychology, Neuroscience, and Traumatic Brain Injury Research here at Kessler Foundation.
A number of our fellows have gone on to research and teaching positions at universities such as Penn State, Columbia University, NYU, Drexel, Montclair State, and many other academic institutions, nationally and internationally.
Dr. Silvana Costa was Chief Fellow from June 2014 - July 2016 Dr. Erica Weber was appointed our current Chief Fellow July 2016
