The Hamied Foundation UK-India Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Visiting Fellowship Scheme will support the travel and subsistence costs of researchers in the UK wishing to visit India, or researchers in India wishing to visit the UK, to develop long-term collaborations in this highly-important and topical field of biomedical research.

 

The Academy of Medical Sciences has developed a programme that seeks to facilitate a long-term collaboration between the most talented researchers in the field of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the UK and India. 

The programme is designed to help capacity build and is being generously supported by the Yusuf and Farida Hamied Foundation. We also acknowledge the guidance of the Office of the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for England in development of the scheme. 

In addition to the Visiting Fellowship scheme, it will also fund two major international scientific meetings.
