International classification, cancer and care: Accounting for the diagnostic potential of low- and middle-income countries
REFNo: SS3561ES
NOTES: The overall project is guided by three research questions, given here with their related objectives. Specific objectives for research activities in Uganda are also described.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE 1: What are the “on-the-ground realities” of brain tumour diagnosis and care in Sub-Saharan Africa and how does diagnostic practice in brain tumours differ across the region?
OBJECTIVE 1: To develop three detailed empirical case studies of diagnostic work and brain tumour care in Uganda, Nigeria and South Africa that are embedded in understandings of care23, national policy, socio-technical infrastructures, and international classification.
OBJECTIVE 2: To compare empirical case studies to develop rich understandings of how practitioners in Sub-Saharan Africa use, refuse, or adapt WHO classifications, or mobilise to establish their own terms of reference.
OBJECTIVE 3: To generate critical perspectives on diagnostic value, where diagnosis might not be assumed an essential condition of good care.
RESEARCH QUESTION 2: How are the diagnostic contexts of LMICs considered by experts writing international cancer classifications?
OBJECTIVE 4: To examine how international cancer classifiers understand diagnostic approaches and infrastructures in LMICs.
OBJECTIVE 5: To examine the individual values and institutional principles that guide how classifiers consider these approaches in their decision-making about cancer classification.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE 3: How are local medical practitioners, cancer advocates, and international organisations mobilising in a regional network to improve brain tumour outcomes across Sub-Saharan Africa?
OBJECTIVE 6: To explore how local medical practitioners, advocates, and international organisations in Sub-Saharan Africa are collaborating in a new professional network, Society for Neuro-Oncology Sub-Saharan Africa (SNOSSA), to improve brain tumour diagnosis and care across Sub-Saharan Africa.
OBJECTIVE 7: To examine how members understand unity and diversity among Sub-Saharan African countries, and establish common aspirations and strategies concerning diagnosis and classification.
OBJECTIVE 8: To explore how members understand their work on a disease which is considered rare, yet its true incidence unknown, and which is de-prioritised in national and international funding.
The specific research objective for research conducted in Uganda is to develop a thorough ethnographic understanding of how brain tumour diagnosis happens in practice; how diagnostic work relates to local sociotechnical infrastructure, national policy, and international classification; and how diagnosis relates to care and treatment decision-making.
