Training/Capacity Building
The BMP facilitates capacity building in scientific expertise, postgraduate and clinical training both of Malawian and international scientists. BMP projects have funded post-graduate training in epidemiology, pathology, laboratory science, infectious diseases, and ethics. The project also seeks to involve physicians in training at the College of Medicine with ongoing studies, encouraging interest in the research of diseases that threaten their own community.
At the operational level, BMP has participated in the training of dozens of clinical officers, nurses and laboratory technicians. Each of these activities strengthens the internal capacity of Malawi in basic scientific research, clinical research and clinical care. International scientists develop skills in developing clinically important questions and providing high quality, ethical research in resource limited settings.
