"What are we aiming at?” That’s the question our first president, Daniel Coit Gilman, asked at his inauguration in 1876. What is this place all about, exactly? His answer: "The encouragement of research . . . and the advancement of individual scholars, who by their excellence will advance the sciences they pursue, and the society where they dwell.” Gilman believed that teaching and research go hand in hand-that success in one depends on success in the other-and that a modern university must do both well. He also believed that sharing our knowledge and discoveries would help make the world a better place. After 140 years, we haven’t strayed from that vision. This is still a destination for excellent, ambitious scholars and a world leader in teaching and research. Distinguished professors mentor students in the arts and music, humanities, social and natural sciences, engineering, international studies, education, business, and the health professions. Those same faculty members, and their colleagues at the university's Applied Physics Laboratory, have made us the nation’s leader in federal research and development funding every year since 1979. That’s a fitting distinction for America’s first research university, a place that revolutionized higher education in America.
Overview
The G-ANC/PNC project is a 2-year project awarded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation through Technical Advice connect. This project provides technical assistance to Bauchi state to layer high impact interventions on G-ANC/PNC platform for improved maternal and newborn outcomes in the State. This will be achieved by supporting the SMoH and SPHCDA to accelerate coverage and quality of RMNCAH+N Hlls. With the goal of strengthening PHC systems, improving service delivery and uptake of RMNCAH+N Hlls along the continuum of care layering on the G- ANC/PNC model. The state will spearhead the G-ANC scaleup, and Jhpiego is providing technical assistance. The project will commence full implementation of G-ANC/PNC project in about 206 primary health facilities.
