Partner Institutions in India

U.S. Khorana Scholars will have the opportunity to pursue summer research at the following institutions. If faculty members at participating U.S. Universities have collaborations with other Indian Institutions that are not on this list, we will work with you to help place your students at these collaborating Indian Institutions.

Indian Khorana Scholars DO NOT need to be enrolled in one of these institutions to apply for a Khorana Scholarship.  We welcome applicants from all institutions in India.

Please do not directly contact these institutions.  Khorana Program administrators will connect accepted scholars with suitable hosting institutions in India.
