About the Fellowship<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Launched in 2005, the TEG Training Fellowship Scheme<\/strong> is a key element of TEG’s investment in the capacity development strategy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The scheme will allow promising research students<\/strong><\/a> from sub-Saharan Africa to complete a Master’s degree in Medical Statistics<\/a><\/strong> at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine(LSHTM), followed by one year as a statistician at one of their partner centers in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, fellows continue to benefit from mentoring, supervision, and support throughout their internship with their group members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, there are three fellowships<\/a><\/strong> funded by the Uk Medical Research Council (MRC), GSK and LSHTM to support a two-year course in medical statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, successful students will complete a master’s degree in medical statistics for the first-year at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is followed by a one-year internship in one of the African Centers of the Research<\/strong><\/a> Program of the Tropical Epidemiology Group<\/a><\/strong> (TEG) of the MRC at the LSHTM. During professional attachment, the Fellows will develop their statistical and research skills by working on studies with the help of TEG scientists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
