In addition to pursuing medical, other health professional degrees, and STEM Ph.D. degrees, our students can pursue the following careers:
Sheena D. Brown, Ph.D., MSCR
Assessment Director and Associate Professor | Meharry Medical College Physician Assistant Sciences Program
Dr. Brown currently serves as the assessment director for the Meharry Medical College Physician Assistant Sciences Program and had more than nine years of experience in PA education. She received her Ph.D. in Molecular and Systems Pharmacology and Master of Science in Clinical Research from Emory University. She is also a proud graduate of Spelman College where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology. She has over 15 years of translational and clinical research experience in the areas of pediatric asthma, health disparities, and alcohol-induced lung injury.
She has also served as the principal investigator and project director of a HRSA-funded Primary Care Training and Enhancement Grant. The primary goal of this funding was to increase the number of public health trained PAs providing evidence-based primary medical care to Georgia’s rural and medically underserved communities and increase student diversity through recruitment of persons from rural and/or medically underserved communities, underrepresented minorities (URMs), and veterans.
