The Fogarty International Center of the Department of Health and Human Services awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $578,452 on August 20, 2026, under the International Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.989) to develop and validate a mobile clinical decision support tool and community health worker training package for integrated screening and management of hypertension and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in low-literacy, multilingual settings. The project, titled "mHealth and Mobile Clinics for Implementation of Care for Cardiac and Respiratory Multimorbidity (M-CARE)," will engineer a simplified, multilingual clinical decision support tool operationalizing WHO protocols for co-occurring cardiopulmonary multimorbidity, co-developed with populations represented both at the study site in northeast India and within the U.S. Burmese American diaspora. The recipient will deliver a community health worker training package designed for direct transfer to American primary care settings serving rural populations and federally qualified health centers with staffing shortages and limited specialty access. Validation occurs in northeast India, where disease burden, existing infrastructure, trained community health workers, and established partnerships enable efficient proof-of-concept before tools are deployed to U.S. rural and tribal clinics and urban health centers serving populations including American Indian, Alaska Native, and Burmese American communities. Work is performed at Columbia University's Health Sciences Division in New York, New York. The period of performance runs through May 31, 2031.
