For those who are lucky enough to spend a portion of their research career in a developing country, a common sentiment is that the experience changed their lives and refocused their field of investigation. Imagine the impact on a young researcher of being involved in a training program that not only focuses on international health issues using a multidisciplinary approach, but does so from four major international training sites. From these sites the trainees, both Canadian and international, conduct their research, work as teammates on joint study projects and come together annually for intensive coursework at one of the major training sites. The theme of the CIHR International Infectious Disease and Global Health (IID&GH) Training Program is "Four Continents, One Shared Experience". The goal of this Training Program is not only to inform the trainees about the issues, challenges and opportunities of multidisciplinary international health research but to have them experience it for themselves.
