Evaluating the impact of clinical trials in Africa
Deadline for proposals: 15 November 2010The purpose of this grant is to gain comprehensive insight into the impact of clinical trials on health services in sub-Saharan Africa, especially with regard to the quality of those services delivered to women and/or children.
There is anecdotal information that clinical trials may negatively impact routine healthcare delivery by diverting resources. Contrary reports, however, have indicated that clinical trials contribute to the quality of routine healthcare, for example, by providing training and improved infrastructure.
The European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP) is offering consortia senior public health/social science researchers from Europe and sub-Saharan Africa the opportunity to apply for a 1-2 year research grant to investigate the impact of EDCTP and non-EDCTP funded clinical trials in sub-Saharan Africa.
