Russia, Eurasia and the Arctic region news, resources and funding for global health researchers
Fogarty fosters partnerships between U.S. scientists and their counterparts in Russia, Eurasia and the Arctic through implementation of international agreements and other activities which support international collaboration. Each year, U.S. scientists, both at government and university laboratories and institutions, undertake joint projects in all areas of biomedical and behavioral science with their colleagues from throughout this region. Collaboration is carried out through fellowships and exchanges, joint grant awards, and under the auspices of high-level government commissions. Fogarty:
- facilitates these collaborative efforts,
- supports research and research training programs to strengthen cooperation,
- provides information on other NIH, U.S. government, and non-government programs,
- establishes linkages between U.S. and foreign scientists, and
- participates in bilateral frameworks.
