The Fogarty International Center (FIC/NIH)
The Fogarty International Center, the international component of the NIH, addresses global health challenges through innovative and collaborative research and training programs with a focus on international partnerships. Caribbean researchers are particularly encouraged to visit the website regularly to identify opportunities.
National Institutes of Health (NIH), USA
One of the largest health research funding agencies in the world, the NIH principally supports researchers from the USA. However there are opportunities for Caribbean researchers, primarily through collaborations with US institutions and colleagues. A few relevant Institutes include:

Medical Research Council (MRC), UK
The MRC principally supports UK-based researchers - apart from its investments in its overseas Units in Africa. Whilst overseas researchers cannot be principal investigators on a grant application, they may be included in a proposal as a co-investigator, subject to prior discussion with the MRC and where invited to do so e.g. where the nature of the research makes this necessary. Further information on how to apply for MRC funding is available via the website. The MRC Applicant’s Handbook is available as a guide.
The Wellcome Trust (UK)
The Wellcome Trust is one of the larger health research funding agencies in the world. Although, their role is primarily to support the work of UK researchers, there are opportunities for other persons such as from the Caribbean such as through collaborations with UK colleagues. Caribbean researchers seeking funding are encouraged to periodically browse the site to determine what is available.
