An educational trip is planned to visit district hospitals and the public health department. Cultural trips will be to the beach, an artist community, and volcano national park. No formal agreement. Last year, using those initial contacts as a base, we applied for a USIA affiliations grant in order to set up a faculty exchange with the UCA around the issues of land, minority rights, and the environment. Preliminary information from USIA indicates that our application will be successful.
Formal agreement exists.
No formal agreement. The Indiana University School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and the University of Ibadan College of Medicine are currently in the eighth year of a collaborative two site community prevalence and incidence study of age associated dementias. The study is funded by a grant from the National Institute on Aging. So far there have been exchanges of investigators to both sites. Efforts are currently under way to expand the exchange program.
