Abstract
Effect of medical mission trips on PA students
Highlights
Structure/Method/Design: To create locally relevant content, we surveyed Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College (KCMUCo) faculty, researchers, administrative staff and students
Responsive RCR training is relevant following the success of the Medical Education Partnership Initiative (MEPI) program in Africa
Duke Global Health Institute (DGHI) has partnered with Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College (KCMUCo) in Tanzania to produce a five-part series of RCR training videos
Summary
Structure/Method/Design: To create locally relevant content, we surveyed RCR knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of KCMUCo faculty, researchers, administrative staff and students. We conducted in-depth interviews with community advisory board (CAB) members, local leaders and research participants. We held focus group discussions with CABs and local community members. We analysed transcripts for key themes to develop into story lines. Using an enhanced web connection between Duke and KCMUCo, students and faculty collaborated to write and finalize scripts. A team of Duke students joined members of the KCMUCo medical student organization, “Communication Skills Club,” in Tanzania for filming. Each module is approximately five minutes long, in Kiswahili with English subtitles. A website hosts the videos, facilitation guide, RCR materials, evaluation survey, and website traffic analytics
