Welcome to the Clinical Research Laboratories map

Laboratories within LMIC countries have a significant role to play in providing cutting edge research and development in areas that most impact these countries. In addition, it is critical for these laboratories to build capacity in order to effectively respond to health threats such as COVID-19, TB, HIV/AIDS, Malaria, and Ebola, to mention but a few. This map shows some laboratories in Africa that have been actively involved in clinical research by making substantial contributions to vaccine, drug and diagnostic development. We trust that highlighting laboratories with clinical research experience in resource-limited settings will encourage continued collaboration between laboratories and also sharing of knowledge. We will be updating this map with more laboratories from across LMICs.
