AMPATH (Academic Model Providing Access To Healthcare)
Research
Founded in 1989, AMPATH is an academic medical partnership between North American academic health centers led by the Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, Indiana, the Moi University School of Medicine, centered in Eldoret, Kenya, and both the US and Kenyan governments.
The AMPATH Research Program seeks to improve the health of the Kenyan people through the identification, development and dissemination of relevant and timely information on health and health care systems for use by decision-makers in medical care, public health and public policy in Kenya and elsewhere in resource-constrained settings.
Mission
Brown University joined the AMPATH consortium in 1998. The program seeks to provide comprehensive services to a population of over 24 million people in western Kenya through its three-way mission of care, research, and training. Read more about the AMPATH program at Brown.
