Landscape Analysis of Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Ecosystem in Uganda.
REFNo: HS1935ES
The main objective of the landscape assessment is to understand the current decision-making environment in Uganda’s health sector relevant to priority setting, including the identification of key stakeholders and interests, to support the development of a strategy to institutionalise HTA as an essential process for priority setting and evidence-informed decision making in Uganda’s quest for UHC.

Anti-Retroviral Therapy Adherence Measurement Methods and Virological Failure in HIV infected Ugandans on long-term ART
REFNo: HS1949ES
1a. To describe incidence of virological failure in patients enrolled in the long-term ART cohort and assess the relationship between adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) measured either by patient self-report, appointment keeping and pill count and having virologic failure among HIV-infected Ugandan adults receiving long-term first line.
1b. To examine overall adherence measurement methods as a predictive test for VF among long term ART patients using a case control design taking patients confirmed with VF as cases and use incidence density sampling to sample for controls matched with time and age.
2. Determine the barriers and facilitators of ART adherence among patients on long-term ART at adult Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI) ART clinic using the Theoretical-Domains-Framework with 16 semi-structured, in-depth interviews with both people experiencing VF and those without VF, and ART providers (Medical Officers, Nurses, and counsellors)

The effects of water shortage on female chimpanzee social behaviour in the Budongo Forest Reserve
REFNo: NS278ES
This research examines the space use and social behavior of female chimpanzees in the Budongo Forest Reserve, Uganda. In the forest, there are two habituated chimpanzee communities – Waibira, where habituation started in 2011, and Sonso, where habituation started in 1990. While both groups have high year-round food availability, the Waibira group faces an unusual ecological pressure during the annual dry season, when, despite being a rainforest-dwelling group, all permanent water sources within their home range dry up, with the exception of one waterhole. Describing how the female chimpanzees of the community are affected by this annually recurring water scarcity will help us understand the ecological pressures influencing chimpanzee social and ranging behavior. The project aims to provide a detailed description of the ranging of Waibira females, as well as their association patterns, levels of aggression, and gregariousness, and investigate whether any seasonal changes due to water availability are present. Other aims are to determine the dominance hierarchy of the females of the group, and to investigate whether individual factors influence strategies used to deal with water scarcity, such as increasing daily travel, or consuming more water-rich food.
