Mary heersink institute for global health

Since March 2022, UAB and McMaster University have advanced a shared vision to strengthen institutional collaboration across research, education and global health initiatives.

This innovative program addresses global health initiatives and medical training in Peru with Partners in Health, known locally as Socios En Salud, in Lima, Peru.

This partnership, an initiative of the Mary Heersink Institute for Global Health, represents a significant step toward enhancing the quality of medical education, research and health care delivery on an international scale.

Students will have the opportunity to learn from experienced, diverse faculty with a range of international partners working in interdisciplinary, global health research and practice.
