This video features a conversation with Dr. Atul Gawande, former USAID Global Health Assistant Administrator, on the future of global health. It offers an accessible and impactful overview of tuberculosis—the world’s leading infectious disease killer. The discussion covers key global TB statistics, challenges in diagnosis and treatment—particularly in low-resource settings—and the urgent need for sustained political commitment and funding. Featuring insights from global health leaders and individuals affected by TB, the video underscores why TB remains a pressing public health challenge and outlines priorities for moving toward its elimination.

The networking platform is an online matchmaking tool designed to help participants connect and collaborate on proposals for the second stage of Global Health EDCTB 3 calls.

The Global Health Emerging Scholars (GHES) program is a 12-month mentored global health research training fellowship at select institutions in low-and-middle-income countries (LMIC). The GHES program was established in 2012 and is comprised of four US partner institutions – Yale University, the University of California at Berkeley, Stanford University, and the University of Arizona – that together have collaborations in 16 LMICs representing Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Oceania. The program is designed for pre- and post-doctoral trainees from the U.S. and post-doctoral trainees from collaborating LMICs who are dedicated to pursuing a career in global health and want to gain a solid scientific research foundation in a collaborative environment to develop into productive, independent researchers in global health. GHES offers hand-on opportunities to conduct research projects relevant to the health priorities of stakeholders and partners at established medical and research institutions and project sites in collaborating LMICs while being mentored by dedicated experts. DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION: October 1, 2025 at 5:00pm Eastern Time.

Usually application due in November; application opens in August. The Global Health Fellowship Program is a 12-month clinical research training program for post-doctorate trainees and doctoral students in the health professions, sponsored by the NIH’s Fogarty International Center (FIC) in partnership with several NIH Institutes and Centers.
