Berkeley Minority Health/Global Health (MH/GH) Training Program

伯克利少数民族健康/全球健康培训项目旨在为致力于减少美国和国际健康差距的本科生和研究生提供健康科学和公共卫生研究方面的国际研究培训。通过加州大学伯克利分校与外国合作机构之间的伙伴关系，将向受训者提供在发展中国家实验室或实地进行基础和应用保健研究的机会。从长远来看，该项目旨在增加从事全球健康和健康差异研究的初级研究人员的多样性，通过纳入新的观点来丰富该领域。该项目还通过鼓励受训者确定他们在国外的经验可以为美国的卫生和研究实践提供借鉴的途径，促进知识从南半球向北半球的转化

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Berkeley Minority Health/Global Health Training Program aims to provide international research training in the health sciences and public health research, for undergraduate and graduate students committed to reducing U.S. and international health disparities. Trainees will be provided with basic and applied health research opportunities in laboratories or field sites in the developing world, through partnerships between the University of California, Berkeley and collaborating institutions in foreign countries. Long-term, the program seeks to increase the diversity of junior researchers engaged in global health and health disparities research, enriching the field through inclusion of new perspectives. The program also promotes the translation of knowledge from the global South to the North, by encouraging trainees to identify the ways in which their experiences abroad can inform health and research practices in the U.S. RELEVANCE: Training of junior investigators in health disparities research, including provision of research experiences in low-resource settings in the developing world, will replenish the pipeline of health professionals and health scientists able effectively to address public health disparities in the United States.
