The longstanding research relationship between CWRU, primarily represented by the Case CFAR and the Case TBRU, the government of Uganda and Makerere University, has resulted in the development of an extensive research infrastructure in Uganda. CWRU was one of the first US academic institutions to move from "safari" science to a strong integrated research approach involving teaching, training, and employment. We recently celebrated our twenty-year collaboration with the Ugandan government and Makerere University. Currently over 200 Ugandan scientists and health care professionals are actively involved in our collaborative programs. A major limitation to new initiatives in the developing world has been the lack of state-of-the-art laboratory facilities on site. The Case CFAR has fostered seminal studies on TB and HIV/AIDS by providing a state-of-the-art laboratories and facilities for clinical virology and molecular biology in Uganda. All the research laboratories (Virology/Molecular Biology, Immunology, Mycobacterial, and STD laboratories) are directed on site by Ugandans, all of whom have received advanced degrees from CWRU through the Fogarty AIDS Training Program. To further facilitate sharing of resources and to promote/support new research initiatives, all laboratory facilities and services associated with HIV/AIDS research are being administered by the Case CFAR Uganda Laboratory Core with the following two main Specific Aims: ¿ To provide comprehensive laboratory services to facilitate HIV/AIDS-related research projects of CFAR investigators ¿ To provide a mechanism for training of Ugandan scientists in collaboration with CWRU and Fogarty AIDS Training Grant

CWRU（主要由Case CFAR和Case TBRU、乌干达政府和Makerere大学代表）之间的长期研究关系导致了乌干达广泛研究基础设施的发展。CWRU是美国最早从“狩猎”科学转向包括教学、培训和就业在内的强大综合研究方法的学术机构之一。我们最近庆祝了与乌干达政府合作20周年
