The Harvard China Health Partnership is providing research awards for full-time Harvard students and post-doctoral fellows to conduct research on public health issues in China, with a priority on health systems or health policy issues related to China. Awards of up to $3,000 will be given, depending on whether field travel is required. This Award is supported by the William C. Hsiao Research and Education Fund. Applications are due by April 15, 2020. Applicants will be informed of decisions by May 1, 2020, and awards may last up to one year. For more information, see the attachment, HCHP Research Awards 2020.
COVID-19 Implications. Any applications will need to follow the latest travel polices of Harvard University, including travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic (see https://www.harvard.edu/coronavirus and scroll down to “Travel”). The research proposal should be realistic about the feasibility of travel, given that international travel would need to be August 2020 or later. Applicants are recommended to consider alternative methodologies and to have contingency plans in case any proposed travel component is not able to be completed.
