UJMT LAUNCH: Building Research Capacity through Mentored Training
Since 2012, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Johns Hopkins University, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Tulane University have offered mentored research training through the UJMT Fogarty Global Health Fellowship program, funded by the Fogarty International Center within the National Institutes of Health.
This consortium brings together four top-ranked universities and their respective international research training sites in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Trainee research projects are supported by mentors with expertise in clinical, public health, laboratory, and implementation research. Each trainee works with a team of mentors, including at least one U.S. and one international member to monitor the trainee’s progress and provide on-site supervision.
Regardless of their institutional affiliation, trainees will work at one of our core research sites in the following countries:

The Wellcome Foundation funds researchers to take on important questions relating to life, health, and wellbeing, with creative approaches that push boundaries.
They plan to spend £16 billion by 2032 to advance scientific discovery and take on the world’s most urgent health issues.
They believe ground-breaking discoveries are more likely to occur in collaborations between a diverse range of people, so they are working with partners and the teams they fund to support a thriving, inclusive research culture.
