Mysore Global Learning Experience

One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things - Henry Miller

Welcome! Thanks for visiting my page

This site is dedicated to sharing my month long, learning experience in Mysore, India.

While on location, I will be learning how Ayurvedic medicine is currently being supplemented into India's healthcare system. 

My journey begins as I depart from Miami, Florida to head to the "City of Palaces" as a participant of Florida International University 2018 Global Health Study Abroad program.

How it was Possible

Public Health Research Institute of India (PHRII), also known as Prerana to its patients, is an organization dedicated to providing women’s health services for women in both rural and urban areas in Mysore. The wonderful staff at PHRII arranged all activities for the 2018 fellows.  

PHRII was founded by Dr. Purnima Madhivanan,  associate professor of epidemiology at FIU.

The empowering women at PHRII are passionate and dedicated in providing evidence-based care to the women they treat. To learn more about their mission click here
