This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) provides $108,000 to strengthen pre-award grants management capacity at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) in Kenya. The key objectives are to: 1) Train two senior KNH research administrators on pre-award grant management processes at the University of Washington and the National Institutes of Health; 2) Develop institutional pre-award processes compliant with U.S. federal regulations; and 3) Build capacity through training for other research administrators at KNH and other Kenyan institutions receiving NIAID funds. The aim is to enhance KNH's ability to independently manage research grants, reducing reliance on external partners, and establish a model for strengthening grants management at other local institutions in Kenya. The award period is from August 1, 2024 to January 31, 2026.
