The Cardiometabolic Research Training Program: Building Capacity for CVD Research in Nepal and Kenya<\/p>\n

Cardiometabolic risk factors, which increase the risk of and promote onset of CVD related to mortality and disability, include a combination of metabolic dysfunctions primarily characterized by hypertension, insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, and central adiposity. This crisis has led to a call for strategic investment in research including regional development, networking across countries, and expanding cross-sectoral partnerships to improve translation, innovation, and patient care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In this collaboration with Kathmandu University and University of Nairobi, we aim to increase high-impact research on cardiometabolic disease and risk factors by building research capacity in Nepal and Kenya via PhD and master\u2019s level degree training in the US as well as mid- and short-term training in Kenya and Nepal focusing on essential research and leadership skills.<\/p>\n
