Antioxidants and Nutritional Potential of Enriched Millet Based Composite Flour Using Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis)
REFNo: A432ES
The objectives will be to;
1. determine the proximate composition (moisture content, ash content, fiber content and protein content) in non-germinated and germinated millet flours of eight selected local millet varieties (Ekwangapel, Ekaama, Emoro moru, Ayuku manyige, Odyera, Min bel, Luk caa and Adyang adyang).
2. determine the concentration of minerals (zinc, calcium, magnesium and iron) in non-germinated and germinated millet flours of eight selected local millet varieties (Ekwangapel, Ekaama, Emoro moru, Ayuku manyige, Odyera, Min bel, Luk caa and Adyang adyang).
3. determine the concentration of anti-nutritional factors (oxalates, tannins and Phytates) in non-germinated and germinated millet flours of eight selected local millet varieties (Ekwangapel, Ekaama, Emoro moru, Ayuku manyige, Odyera, Min bel, Luk caa and Adyang adyang).
4. determine the antioxidant potential (Beta carotene) in spirulina powder and germinated millet composite flours of three selected local millet superiors.
5. determine the consumer acceptability of the spirulina millet-based product (porridge) of three selected local millet superiors.

Genetics of Glaucoma in High-risk Diverse Populations (GoGLAD) Study
REFNo: HS3427ES
General objective
To apply and critically evaluate the efficacy of genetic-based risk prediction models for glaucoma in an understudied, high-risk, genetically diverse continental African population in Uganda.
Specific objectives
1. To test the feasibility of collecting quality pilot clinical data on glaucoma related phenotypes, genetic data from a unique high-risk diverse population in Uganda.
2. To assess cross-ancestry genetic-based prediction of glaucoma risk in major diverse ancestry populations.
2A- To apply our current European-based genetic prediction model of glaucoma to a high-risk population of African ancestry from Uganda.
2B - To develop, and calibrate an African ancestry genetic prediction model of glaucoma and implement it in populations of European and African ancestries.
2C- To develop, model and calibrate a cross-ancestry genetic prediction model and apply it in populations of European and African ancestries.
3. To apply artificial intelligence to eye images to characterise ancestral differences in glaucoma risk and evaluate estimation of disease risk and progression.
4. To assess participants’ attitude towards genetic testing for glaucoma.
