SHARE PHMI was instrumental in facilitating a study of India’s National Reference Laboratories (funded by Cooperative Agreement Number: U62/PS25164; PI: V. Yeldandi) in collaboration with Global Healthcare Public Foundation which was the basis of the CDC report dated July 30, 2008 submitted by CDC GAP India to NACO. As a consequence of this study PHMI is able to analyze the specific needs of India’s National Reference Laboratories as well the State Reference Laboratories and is well placed to assist these laboratories in designing and implementing programs for Laboratory Strengthening.

INSTRUCTIONS: In order to add a sidebar anchor:

  1. Duplicate the existing item, listed as a 1/6 text field. (Or create a 1/6 column and add a text field, modify the class so it’s exactly “additionalAnchor”).
  2. Modify the text field inside the 1/6 column. Inside there, modify the HYPERLINK so that it would go to a corresponding section with a “#” in front of it. (Example, we have a “chief” section on the page, then it would make sense to have the hyperlink go to “#chief”)
  3. Then change the hyperlink TEXT to a appropriate label.
  4. IMPORTANT: If not done already, go into that CONTAINER that corresponds to your anchor (i.e. Meet The Chiefs), and add an ID matching the anchor’s HYPERLINK WITHOUT the “#”, i.e. “chief”.
  5. (If using side bar widget box, then there’s a saved copy of a widget box COLUMN, grab it in the column library, it should 1/6 of a length of a column.)

NOTE: Order added to the sidebar is from last to first.
