NPGH LEADERs - NIEHS - Wongta
About This Grant
Over the past ten years, our consortium Universities in Washington, Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, and Hawaii have provided research training to 221 Fogarty Global Health Fellows and Scholars, who to date have generated 866 publications. With this competitive renewal, we propose to expand training activities aimed at increasing the likelihood of trainees becoming independent global health scientists and leaders. We have modified our consortium name to reflect this new emphasis: Northern Pacific Global Health Leadership, Education, And Development for Early-career Researchers (NPGH LEADERs). We propose to continue partnerships based in nine countries: Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Cameroon, Liberia, Peru, Thailand, Nepal, and India. To achieve our objective of developing the next generation of independent global health scientists and leaders, we will offer 12-month research and leadership training with the following specific aims: Aim 1: To ensure excellence in scientific inquiry, trainees will complete a comprehensive curriculum in global health research, including how to frame novel, relevant, and feasible scientific questions, prepare detailed scientific protocols, and plan for the implementation of a mentored research project in a low- or middle-income country. Aim 2: To address the challenges of research implementation in a low-resource setting, trainees will follow an explicit, expedited, supported, and mentored progression from research planning to pragmatic implementation and process management. Aim 3: To prepare trainees for careers as independent scientists and to excel in both leadership and management, we will support trainees in development of individualized “road maps” to define the research, management and leadership skills necessary for their transition into independent investigators. We will also expand alumni support to further strengthen the scientific and leadership skills necessary for transitioning to the next generation of independent global health scientists. Our comprehensive research training model will generate rigorous, generalizable scientific evidence in a variety of resource-limited settings and strengthen implementation and leadership capacity of promising young U.S. and international scientists. In doing so, we will advance the NIH mission to understand, prevent, and treat diseases in ways that directly improve the health of Americans as well as the international populations engaged in our trainees’ research projects.
