Simons–Ashoka Early Career Fellowship in Quantitative Biomedical Sciences
The Trivedi School of Biosciences at Ashoka University is launching the Simons–Ashoka Early Career Fellowship in Quantitative Biomedical Sciences, a novel initiative by the Simons Foundation outside the United States, and in a developing country.
This unique model of collaborative research in the quantitative biomedical sciences and allied fields has the vision to:
- Build an innovative and multidisciplinary research community using advanced mathematical and computational methods in analysis of health data and in addressing problems in fundamental biomedical sciences with impact on health.
- Extend the impact of the Simons Foundation to address healthcare needs in low- and middle-income countries.
- Incubate pioneering initiatives in the field of personalised medicine, as a model for similar efforts in institutions across the world.
