The Fogarty International Center (FIC) of the National Institutes of Health awarded a $302,142 Project Grant (CFDA 93.989 - International Research and Research Training) to Mu-Jhu Care LTD, a minority and woman-owned organization located in Kampala, Uganda. This 5-year grant, effective from July 1, 2025 to March 31, 2030, aims to strengthen the capacity of researchers in Uganda to conduct HIV treatment and prevention clinical trials focused on perinatal, pediatric, adolescent, and at-risk populations including women and their partners. The project will provide short-term, medium-term, and long-term didactic and practicum trainings to build expertise in areas such as regulatory/ethical considerations, counseling approaches, and assessing safety, dose, and pharmacokinetics of new HIV therapeutics in these specialized populations. This will enable Mu-Jhu Care LTD to serve as a training center and further strengthen its own research capacity in biostatistics and behavioral research.
