Native American Research Centers for Health (NARCH)
The purpose of the NARCH are: 1) to develop a cadre of American
Indian/Alaska Native scientists and health professionals engaged in
biomedical, clinical behavioral and health services research who
will be competitive in securing NIH funding; 2) to increase the
capacity of both research-intensive institutions and AI/AN
organizations to work in partnership to reduce distrust by AI/AN
communities and people toward research; and 3) to encourage
competitive research linked to the health priorities of the AAIHB
communities and to reducing health disparities. Our academic partner
in this is the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center.
