Increasing Capacity
Capacity
There is a critical need to empower clinical researchers in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) to lead the research response to epidemic infections. We offer a portfolio of research capacity building initiatives to support emerging clinical researchers in exchanging knowledge, gaining confidence in their research and leadership skills, developing local and regional research agendas, and ultimately increasing the international footprint of their institution both within ISARIC and further afield.
Collaboration is at the core of everything we do and our research capacity strengthening programmes focus on reaching out to, and working with a number of regional and international initiatives. Learn more about past and ongoing opportunities.
Clinical Research During Outbreaks (CREDO)
The CREDO training provides trainees with a set of skills to lead the research response in an outbreak, and strengthens the national capacities of LMICs to generate clinical evidence during outbreaks and facilitate networking and the sharing of resources.

From silo to synergy: working together to accelerate defences against viral outbreaks – CEPI & ISARIC
Wajeeha Malik (written in collaboration with CEPI) In an outbreak, every day counts. Each unnecessary phone call or duplicative process wastes time and costs lives – especially in resource-stretched settings. There is a clear need for collaborative and coordinated research across medical countermeasures to help accelerate the response and reduce the threat of epidemics and pandemics. At the moment, research for vaccines and therapeutics is often conducted in silos, decelerating momentum and
Delphi survey launched by the ISARIC Dengue Core Outcome Set team
20 July 2024: The Dengue Core Outcome Set (DEN-CORE) team has officially launched the first round of their Delphi survey, focusing on outcomes for hospitalised patients with dengue. Individuals involved with dengue in any way are invited to participate in the definition of the most critical dengue outcomes by emailing dencore@isaric.org with an expression of interest. The survey is available in 11 languages: English, Bahasa, Hindi, Malay, Nepali, Portuguese, Spanish, Sinhala, Tagalog, Thai,
