** It is not mandatory for those holding a medical degree and/or a MPH degree to also have a PhD in order to apply to our Fellowships.
** The India Alliance appreciates and understands that clinicians and public health researchers sometimes follow a different career trajectory from basic scientists.

** The Applicants are advised to choose the most appropriate scheme suitable for them based on their qualification, research experience, career trajectory and track record.

The following parameters are typically used to guide the Office:

If you would fit the profile of a clinician scientist or public health researcher, you have the option to contact the office with your CV and a brief write up of what you would like to do, to get advice on suitability of the scheme you wish to compete for.
