Global REACH Faculty Funding
Funding for UMMS Faculty
Supporting our faculty
Global REACH supports UMMS faculty looking to create promising new international collaborations and also offers funding for faculty to engage students in ongoing global health efforts. In addition, the Joint Institute partnership with Peking University Health Science Center (PKUHSC), Michigan Medicine's primary institutional partner in China, holds an annual request for proposals for joint research projects between UMMS faculty and their PKUHSC counterparts.
