Travel Information

We are trying to identify primary or co-investigators of Health Research, Infrastructure or Training Projects along the US-Mexico Border.

The Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) and the Bureau of Health Professions Diversity and Development (BHPr) created an initiative to identify Health Service Research that is currently being conducted along the Border Region of the four western states of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas. In response to a request from HRSA, a consortium of Centers of Excellence (COEs) within these states came together to address the issues raised by HRSA and BHPr. The purpose is to identify primary or co-investigators of Health Research, Infrastructure or Training Projects along the US-Mexico Border. The identification of all researchers makes it possible to facilitate future collaborations between respondents. If you know of someone conducting Health Research along the US-Mexico Border, please share this information with them.
