In November 2022, the second symposium on locally developed and led research in the Eastern Region of the Dominican Republic was held in La Romana. More than 100 researchers, students, and health practitioners participate in a day of presentations, interactive panels, and an interactive workshop on grant writing.
The Symposium was conceived and run by INDEICOL, the Institute’s local NGO partner in the Dominican Republic, and is an important step in achieving our mission of increasing health research capacity in underresourced communities. The research in the Dominican Republic has a particular focus on emerging infectious diseases and One Health.
