Over the decades,
Fogarty’s programs have made significant contributions by filling the pipeline of global health leaders, extending the frontiers of science and accelerating discovery. Above all, Fogarty invests in people - the most important resource in global health research - who serve on the front lines of the fight against diseases that threaten populations in the U.S. and around the world. Since the Center was established in 1968, its programs have provided significant research training for about 6,000 scientists worldwide.
These featured researchers - including senior government officials, and leaders of academic and nongonvermental organizations around the world - share how training supported by Fogarty has impacted their careers, helped build in-country research capacity, and fostered collaboration in research areas vital to global health.
