The original grant to the Institute of International Education (IIE), Grant no. 08-915 for $5,301,330, supported three types of capacity development of Chinese medical universities -- CMB Distinguished Professorships, CMB Mid-Career Faculty Development, and CMB Next Generation Fellowships.  Now that the modalities of these awards have been worked out with high receptivity by the CMB medical universities, this supplemental grant for $2,500,000 will extend IIE’s management of these competitive awards for an additional two years. The principal investigator for this project is Director Keith Clemenger.
