The NIH does provide grant money for international research projects, international research collaborations, and international research training via the John E. Fogarty International Center for Advanced Study in Health Sciences. The Fogarty Center has many international research and international training grants available. For example, the Fogarty International Research Collaboration Award, or FIRCA, provides money for funded primary investigators, those who already have an NIH grant, to collaborate with investigators located in developing countries. All topic areas supported by NIH are eligible for FIRCA grants. The Fogarty International Collaborative Trauma and Injury Research Training program, or TRAUMA grant, is a training grant that focuses on acute care, survival, rehabilitation, and long-term health consequences of trauma and injury. The TRAUMA grants are also supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and the Pan American Health Organization. The NIH/Fogarty Clinical Research Training Scholars Program provides NIH support for graduate students who are interested in international clinical research. Included in the participating institutes is the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. To learn about these and other international research and training opportunities provided by the Fogarty Center, visit the Fogarty Center website.
