On July 25, OUCRU Nepal Community Advisory Board (CAB) members visited our fever study clinic at Shukraraj Tropical and Infectious Disease Hospital, Teku.

During the visit, they had the opportunity to observe firsthand how individuals are recruited into clinical trials. The CAB members visited the AD-ASTRA/PLATCOV and ACT Nepal outpatient departments (OPDs), where our research clinicians walked them through the entire participant enrolment process. This visit offered valuable insights into the ethical dimensions of our research studies and strengthened community engagement through transparency and dialogue. We extend our sincere appreciation to our clinical team at Teku for warmly welcoming the CAB members and thoughtfully guiding them through the studies.
