Fogarty Global Health Fellowships

Deadline: May 14, 2012


The NIH Fogarty-funded Northern/Pacific Global Health Research Fellows Training Consortium offers mentored clinical research training experiences in low– and middle–income countries to post-doctorate and doctoral students in the health professions. The purpose of the program is to provide outstanding mentored research training to post-doctorate trainees and doctoral students at six international partner institutions with robust clinical research programs.

The Northern/Pacific Global Health Research Fellows Training Consortium is a partnership between the Universities of Washington, Hawai’i, Michigan, and Minnesota with international partnerships with Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Peru, Thailand, and China.

These 11-month fellowships provide outstanding opportunities for highly motivated individuals to experience mentored research training at top-ranked, NIH-funded research centers in Africa, Asia, and South America. The fellowships will begin with an intensive orientation program in August 2012, followed by mentored clinical research training at international partner institutions.

Opportunities for an 11-month fellowship through the University of Washington are available in Ghana, Kenya, Peru, and Uganda.

The deadline to apply is May 14 (May 28 for International Students). To learn more about the program and to print the application, see More information
