- Provide mentored research training for pre-doctoral and pre-professional degree students and post-doctoral and recent post-professional degree students (trainees) from the U.S. and low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) in global health research at established biomedical and health research sites in LMICs, particularly those supported by the NIH.
- Provide all trainees with instruction and training in rigorous research design, research ethics and statistical analysis through mentored research training.
- Provide training opportunities in diverse areas of research relevant to the health priorities of collaborating LMICs and the mission areas of component NIH Institutes and Centers participating in this FOA.
- Provide knowledge and skills to prepare trainees for careers in health research.
- Strengthen global health programs at U.S. academic institutions and help to sustain health research at institutions in LMICs.
