Fulbright-Fogarty Fellowships in Public Health
The Fulbright-Fogarty Fellows in Public Health (for US doctoral students) has been established since July 2011. To date, 19 Fulbright-Fogarty fellows have completed the program, and 3 trainees are in the field this year.
The Fogarty International Center (FIC) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Office of Academic Exchange Programs (ECA) of the Department of State have agreed to grow what has been a very successful pilot program. We now plan to increase the number of Fulbright-Fogarty fellows (US graduate students) to ten in the 2016-17 Class based on the quality of the applicants.
The application deadline is October 13, 2015, for the 2016-17 fellows. The sites and countries for the Fulbright-Fogarty Fellowships in Public Health can be found in http://us.fulbrightonline.org/fulbright-fogarty-fellowships-in-public-health

The Fulbright-Fogarty Fellows in Public Health program provides an exciting opportunity for graduate students in medicine and public health to have a substantial introduction to global health research in an international training site. Please share this opportunity widely and rapidly to potential applicants. We do hope to have a strong pool of wonderful candidates for these awards. A short summary of the list of training sites for 2016-17 is attached.
