Faculty/Fellows Travel Award Fellowship Guidelines
Background
UMB received a Global Health Framework grant from the Fogarty International Center of the National Institutes of Health to promote multidisciplinary research and public health practice in low and middle-income countries. This grant helped create a Global Health Resource Center (GHRC) at UMB to administer the program and provide opportunities in global health. Part of this grant is to encourage and support faculty, postdoctoral fellows and residents who wish to develop research programs in international public health. As a result the GHRC created a yearly UMB GH Faculty and Fellow Travel Award.
