Since 2006, I have acquired an in-depth understanding of conducting clinical research in resource-constrained settings and collaborating with academic, government, and non-government organizations on different types of projects related to the overarching theme of severe illness management. During this time, I have accumulated experience in the following fields: 1) Research: Over 10 years of experience conducting clinical studies/trials evaluating the clinical management, epidemiology, and pathophysiology of hospitalized adult sepsis patients in Uganda2) Policy: 8 years of experience as a consultant to the World Health Organization during which time I have contributed to the development of guidelines for the clinical management of septic shock and viral hemorrhagic fevers by front line health workers in resource-limited settings3) Training: 8 years of experience developing and facilitating trainings in Uganda and, more recently, West Africa which target regional and district level health workers to focus on the early identification, triage, and management of severely ill patients with emergency signs, including those with Ebola Virus Disease.
