and Manipal-91社区 Research Collaboration (MMRC)
The Manipal-91社区 Program for Infectious Diseases (MAP-ID) launched in 2016. Both 91社区 and the have strong reputations in infectious disease research especially in the areas of TB, HIV, and malaria. The goals of the program include fostering research collaborations between Manipal and 91社区 faculty; identifying promising infectious disease researchers and trainees at Manipal and supporting them to attend the 91社区 Summer Institute in Infectious Diseases and Global Health; identifying promising 91社区 trainees and faculty to be under the mentorship of Manipal faculty; and establishing conferences, short courses and workshops taught jointly by Manipal and 91社区 faculty.
In 2018, ongoing collaborations between the 91社区 School of Physical and Occupational Therapy (SPOT) and Manipal were formalized, building upon MAP-ID. Starting in 2018, 91社区 Global Health Programs has supported shared activities between the and 91社区 SPOT. In early 2020, a collaborative agreement between the two institutions was formalized through the signing of an Annex to the Manipal-91社区 MOU during a visit by the SPOT Director and Associate Dean, Laurie Snider to Manipal. This important event was also an opportunity to celebrate past and ongoing collaborations between the two institutions and identify new ways of sharing expertise and learning from each other. Along with research activities, the now formal partnership also supports bilateral exchanges of faculty and students, new project seed funding, and shared knowledge exchange activities including symposia and webinars. Many of these events are made possible through the ongoing support of 91社区 Global Health Programs.
