The Harvard Global Health Institute has opened applications for the 2023 – 2024 Burke Global Health Fellowship. This Fellowship program provides funding for Harvard junior faculty members from across the University to support innovative research, curriculum development, and teaching in global health.
The Fellowships are made possible through the generous support of Harvard alumna Katherine States Burke, AB’79, and her husband, T. Robert Burke, who established the Burke Fund to help launch and advance the careers of promising junior faculty in global health.
