In plain English
This NIH/Fogarty K43 career development award supports an early-career scientist at an academic or research institution in a low- or middle-income country, with a required independent clinical trial. Eligibility is narrow and country-restricted: only foreign institutions in qualifying LMICs may apply, U.S. organizations and their foreign components are not eligible, and some upper-middle-income G20 countries are excluded. This is not available to U.S. applicants. No specific award amount is stated.
