GLOBAL HEALTH

CIGH was formed by Dr. Michele Barry in 2010. After being recruited to Stanford from Yale, Dr. Barry drew on her experience as a tropical disease physician and global health leader to foster a thriving global health community at Stanford, and to build a center focused on excellence in clinical training and capacity building in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). CIGH quickly grew to become a university-wide hub that brings all students and faculty together to pursue training opportunities and research in global health... We collaborate with organizations like WomenLift Health, founded by CIGH, to drive impactful change for women leaders in global health and research topics such as the role of male allyship in advancing female leadership... At Stanford Global Health, we share research and knowledge, equip diverse leaders, and build interdisciplinary, innovative teams to address urgent global health challenges and achieve health equity.
