Diarrheal disease and its short- and long-term consequences cause significant morbidity in developing countries. Malnutrition and lack of physical and cognitive development has significant public health and economic consequences in resource-poor settings. The overall goal of this project is to enhance research and training activities in enteric infectious disease at the Christian Medical College, Vellore through an application for a Global Infectious Disease Research and Training program from the Fogarty International Center. We aim to establish training in enteric infectious diseases-related research, based on a longstanding and ongoing collaborative partnership between investigators at Tufts-New England Medical Center (T-NEMC)/Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) and our institution, Christian Medical College (CMC) Hospital, Vellore, India, which has a strong independent and collaborative medical research program. Enteric infectious diseases continue to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in India, and the goal of our collaborative research is to better understand, investigate, control and prevent diarrheal disease in south India. The project specifically aims to train scientists from southern India in a variety of disciplines necessary to identify and investigate gastrointestinal infections, to extend and reinforce research and training activities in enteric infectious disease at CMC, thereby developing and strengthening CMC as a regional center of excellence for enteric infectious disease research training. Centers of excellence will be developed in multiple disciplines to support and complement enteric infectious disease research in southern India, building on the knowledge and skills of returning trainees.

腹泻病及其短期和长期后果在发展中国家引起明显的发病率。营养不良和缺乏身体和认知发展在资源贫乏的环境中具有重大的公共卫生和经济后果。该项目的总体目的是通过申请Fogarty International Center的全球传染病研究和培训计划来增强Vellore基督教医学院肠道传染病的研究和培训活动。我们的目标是基于Tufts-New England医学中心（T-NEMC）/TUFTS大学医学院（TUSM）和我们的机构，基督教医学院（CMC）医院，印度Vellore，印度India India India In Indial Indepentally Indepentally Indepenlitation Inderpeality Indepentally和合作计划的长期合作和持续的合作伙伴关系，建立与肠道传染病相关的研究培训。肠道传染病仍然是印度发病率和死亡率的主要原因，我们合作研究的目标是更好地理解，调查，控制，控制印度南部的腹泻病。该项目旨在培训来自印度南部的科学家的各种学科，以识别和调查胃肠道感染，扩展和加强CMC肠道传染病的研究和培训活动，从而发展和加强CMC作为肠道感染疾病研究培训的卓越区域卓越中心。卓越中心将在多个学科中发展，以支持和补充印度南部的肠道传染病研究，并以回归学员的知识和技能为基础。
