Genetic causes and epigenetic consequences of infection in childhood (GECo)
REFNo: HS8006ES
The project will use human genetic tools to understand why some children are at increased risk of infection and how childhood infection shapes immune cell function and long-term health. To deliver this, the project has 3 linked work packages:

� What are the human genetic drivers of common childhood infections in Ugandan children?
2. Work Package 2: eQTL and epigenetic studies in immune cells across variable burdens of childhood infection, addressing:

COMMUNITY-LED WATER, SANITATION, AND HYGIENE INTERVENTIONS TO PREVENT SCHISTOSOMIASIS: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE OF LAKE COMMUNITIES IN WESTERN UGANDA
REFNo: SS5342ES
The study aims to apply an anthropological lens to analyze how community-led water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions are conceived, negotiated, implemented, and experienced in schistosomiasis-endemic lake communities in western Uganda, and how these processes shape water-contact behaviours, WASH practices, and patterns of vulnerability to schistosomiasis.
The specific objectives
The following objectives shall guide the study:
1. To analyze how socio-cultural beliefs, local knowledge systems, and structural inequalities in lake communities of Kagadi District, western Uganda, shape everyday water contact behaviors, sanitation practices, and participation in community-led WASH interventions for schistosomiasis prevention.
2. To critically examine the processes, power dynamics, and outcomes of engaging citizen scientists and local communities in co-designing WASH interventions, and how these co-created interventions reflect and negotiate local values, norms, and lived realities.
3. To interrogate the cultural logics, symbolic meanings, and gendered social relations that influence the acceptance, rejection, and everyday use of endod-based soap as a community-led strategy for schistosomiasis prevention.
4. To conduct a qualitative evaluation of how community-led WASH approaches reconfigure local power relations, social organization, and collective action, and how these transformations affect WASH coverage, utilization, and sustainability in schistosomiasis-endemic lake communities, Kagadi District, western Uganda.
