This three-year project for $200,000 aims to strengthen capacity of faculty and upgrade information, library, internet, and learning materials. Fourteen faculty members from both clinical and preclinical areas will be supported for short term training at various centers in the region. These training sessions will vary between three weeks to one year. Teaching and learning materials will be upgraded in the skills and common research laboratories. Access to information and knowledge will be achieved through upgrading internet connectivity in the library.
