SCALE-IT _Ethics

Goal: To strengthen scientific and Ethics capacity in EAC for high quality research review, conduct and oversight, at international standards, 1. To train National Research Regulatory Agency (NRRA) personnel, REC members, researchers and clinicians on scientific and ethics..

We are wrapping up the training of 30 REC members in Eastern Uganda from; @BusitemaUni , Cure Children’s Hospital & @mbalerrh RECs Members have gaiend knowledge and skills to review complex & emerging study design protocols. #clincialtrials #capacitybuilding

Participants were also actively engaged in group work, identifying different stages of clinical trial management, areas of weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement @PbyakikaPauline

In today’s session our trainer @AineProvia , guided participants through: 🔹Key components of the clinical trial management ecosystem 🔹How each component evolves from basic to optimized levels 🔹Implications for REC oversight in maintaining ethical standards #research

Effective Clinical Trials Management is essential to ensure research involving human participants is conducted ethically, safely, and efficiently, while maintaining high scientific standards. #research #clinicaltrials @EDCTP3 @Epicentre_MSF @IDIMakerere , @KEMRI_Kenya

The overall training objective is to equip REC members with knowledge and skills in reviewing protocols involving; emerging and complex study designs and vulnerable populations

key areas; 💊 Drug discovery & development timelines 💰 R&D costs in modern drug development 🧪 Core concepts of Reverse Pharmacology 🧬 Advances in genetics, bioinformatics, and molecular techniques ⚖️ The balance between science, ethics, and traditional knowledge

Day 2 of the @IDIMakerere @Scale_It_Ethics Research Ethics Committee (REC) Training at @MbararaUST kicked off with great energy as Dr. Atwine Daniel, PhD led participants through an insightful session on Reverse Pharmacology (RP) #Clinicaltrial #oneIDI #researcher @EDCTP3
