£11,890,784

Our vision for the Viet Nam Major Overseas Programme is to perform world-leading clinical research with a major impact on local and global health. We will lead a research-driven response to the major and rapidly evolving challenges to healthcare in Asia. We will build regional scientific capacity through a unique and synergistic network of research units, led by the Oxford University Clinical Research unit in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, Viet Nam, and incorporating the Eijkman-Oxford research unit in Jakarta, Indonesia, and the Patan-Oxford research unit in Kathmandu, Nepal. After a decade of development and research diversification, the programme will place emphasis on increasing the impact of our science, the quality of our research, and the efficiency of our operations. Our core research themes will make defining contributions to the understanding of infectious diseases transmission and susceptibility; will develop new tools to prevent, control and treat antimicrobial resistant organisms; will improve clinical outcomes of the major endemic and emerging infectious and non-infectious diseases; and will enhance public health policy in the region. Our unparalleled network of units, partnerships and collaborations, developed over time and spanning every level, enable us to remain ambitious and to deliver world-class research across these themes.
