Fulbright-Fogarty Public Health Fellowship Award - Uganda

The Fulbright-Fogarty Fellowships in Public Health are offered through a partnership between the Fulbright Program and the Fogarty International Center of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. These awards were established to promote the expansion of research in public health and clinical research in resource-limited settings. Fulbright-Fogarty Fellowships carry the same benefits as the traditional Fulbright Study/Research grants to the host country. The Fogarty International Center, NIH, will provide support to the research training site and may provide orientation for the fellows at the NIH. Fellows must be enrolled in an accredited doctoral-level program (MD, PhD, DDS, or comparable degree) in public health, government, business, design, engineering, education, medicine, nutrition, law, pharmacy, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and nursing. The fellowship provides opportunities to conduct independent research projects at multiple affiliated sites across Uganda in areas including HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, cancer, maternal and child health, mental health, and non-communicable diseases.
