“For over 40 years, HHS has supported U.S.-India health collaboration through our attaché assigned to the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi. Today, we have a team of more than 30 U.S. and local health professionals who work with our Indian colleagues on issues ranging from food safety to AIDS outreach and prevention to joint biomedical research on cancer. Our collaborations have had the Government of India’s strong support as we continue working together to address the critical health care challenges here in India and around the world.”
