7. Project summary: The research output of Low and Middle Income countries (LMICs), particularly those in sub-Saharan Africa, has greatly increased over the last 20 years. This increase is due in part to increasing access to both local or international research funds and various local/international initiatives aimed at strengthening LMIC research capacity. Makerere University is one of the most research-intensive universities in Sub-Saharan Africa and has over the years retained its position among the top 10 universities on the continent. Despite the growth and expansion of the research enterprise and though better than most Sub-Saharan African countries Makerere University has been slow in developing a corresponding capacity in international bioethics and yet like in other research active low- and middle-income institutions it faces many research bioethical challenges. The goal of this application is to develop a sustainable core group of doctoral-level trained bioethics scholars at Makerere University College of Health Sciences (MakCHS) with the capabilities to conduct original empirical or conceptual bioethics research on challenging health issues and to support the design and implementation of health research at the highest bioethics standards in an African context. This will be achieved through the following aims: Aim 1: To develop individuals with capabilities to conduct original empirical or conceptual research on critical bio-ethical issues in the region Aim 2: To develop a critical mass of bioethics scholars with the capabilities to give robust advice based on theories, concepts and research findings on development of evidence-based bioethics policies in the region Aim 3: To develop individuals with competencies to sustain scholarly careers providing leadership in teaching bioethics, research design and implementation, ethical review of research and research ethics consultation The planned activities are designed to recruit, select and rigorously train Makerere University and its local partners faculty who will be supported through a 4-year sandwich joint supervision doctoral training program, focusing on research bioethical questions and or challenges of local relevance. The graduates of this training will be equipped to in due course and with subsequent post-doc training become independent bioethics researchers who can teach bioethics and bioethics research courses, lead the ethical review of research and provide expert consultation to their institutions, Government of Uganda, the private sector and international research organizations.

七、项目概要： 低收入和中等收入国家（LMIC）的研究成果，特别是撒哈拉以南非洲国家的研究成果， 过去20年里大大增加了。这一增长的部分原因是增加了对本地和本地的访问 或国际研究基金以及旨在加强中低收入国家的各种本地/国际举措 研究能力。麦克雷雷大学是撒哈拉以南地区研究最密集的大学之一 非洲大学多年来一直保持着非洲大陆前十名大学的地位。尽管 研究企业的成长和扩张，尽管比大多数撒哈拉以南非洲国家要好 国家 麦克雷雷大学在国际化方面发展相应能力方面进展缓慢 生物伦理学，但与其他研究活跃的中低收入机构一样，它面临着许多研究 生物伦理挑战。本次申请的目标是培养可持续发展的博士级核心团队 麦克雷雷大学健康科学学院 (MakCHS) 受过培训的生物伦理学学者 有能力对具有挑战性的健康问题进行原创性的实证或概念性生物伦理学研究 支持按照最高生物伦理标准设计和实施健康研究 非洲背景。这将通过以下目标来实现： 目标 1：培养有能力进行原创性实证或概念研究的个人 该地区的关键生物伦理问题 目标 2：培养足够数量的生命伦理学学者，他们有能力根据以下事实提出强有力的建议： 关于该地区循证生命伦理政策发展的理论、概念和研究成果 目标 3：培养具有维持学术职业能力的个人，并在以下领域提供领导力： 生物伦理学教学、研究设计和实施、研究伦理审查和研究伦理 咨询 计划的活动旨在招募、选拔和严格培训麦克雷雷大学及其当地 合作伙伴教师将通过为期 4 年的三明治联合监督博士培训获得支持 计划，重点研究与当地相关的生物伦理问题和/或挑战。的毕业生 该培训将在适当的时候进行配备，并随着随后的博士后培训变得独立 可以教授生物伦理学和生物伦理学研究课程的生物伦理学研究人员，领导生物伦理学的伦理审查 研究并向其机构、乌干达政府、私营部门和 国际研究组织。
