Fogarty / LIFESPAN - Multilevel & Lifecourse Approaches to Non-Communicable Disease Prevention in Latin America
The aim of this training initiative is to strengthen the capacity of Latin American countries to address the non-communicable diseases (NCD) epidemic through a comprehensive training program that integrates multilevel and life course approaches and emphasizes the importance of reducing social inequalities in NCD. Through partnerships with two research sites in Latin America, the Institute of Nutrition for Central America and Panama (INCAP) in Guatemala, and the National University of Lanus, in Buenos Aires, Argentina we have developed a multidisciplinary program that provides training opportunities for junior investigators from the region in the short, medium, and long terms, both at the sites and at the University of Michigan.
