About Icmr-National Institute of Research in Tribal Health

Icmr-National Institute of Research in Tribal Health is a government institute in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, established in 1984. Campusbells lists it under General, with 2 doctoral courses, including Ph.D.

The ICMR-National Institute for Tribal Health Research (NITHR), Jabalpur, formerly known as the ICMR-National Institute of Research in Tribal Health (NIRTH), and earlier known as the Regional Medical Research Centre for Tribals (RMRCT), saw the light of the day in three rooms at the adjoining Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur, in 1984. The RMRCT was shifted to the main building, spanning a 36-acre lush-green campus in April 2002, and re-designated to its name (NIRTH) in 2014. The vision of the ICMR-NITHR is to improve health, nutrition, and educational awareness of tribes through basic, applied, and operational research to levels that they are no longer considered underprivileged communities of the country.

ICMR-NITHR, Jabalpur, since then, has grown to accommodate established laboratories on hemoglobinopathies, molecular genetics, molecular parasitology, genomic epidemiology, viral diagnosis, microbiology, and in vitro research facilities associated with a modern central animal facility.
