PUBLISHED! Of all the papers I’ve authored—even in high end journals; this one is my absolute favorite. Here, we share how a clinical #trial was launched in record time during Uganda's Sudan #Ebola outbreak.

In a region heavily experiencing frequent epidemics, rapid trial activation to provide evidence needed to support deployment of medical countermeasures is a non-negotiable.

Here we offer an active blueprint to help teams deploy rapid, compliant clinical trials during disease #outbreaks.

Huge thanks to the co-authors & the resilient teams on the ground! @brucekirenga @IAVI @SabiitiwWilber @MWayengera @Hskyobe @MinofHealthUG @Lung_Institute @ICER_Global @WHO @AfricaCDC @EDCTP @StAndMedicine @ByakikaPauline
