Project Description

Despite a very large burden of injury and violence, there are major shortages of scientists able to conduct rigorous and collaborative research in trauma and injury in Botswana. Critical questions of great importance to Botswana and other developing nations in southern Saharan Africa and around the world would benefit from a new collaborative research training program in trauma and injury in Botswana.
