Mycetoma Research Centre

Mycetoma Research Centre MRC was established in 1991 under the umbrella of the University of Khartoum.

It was set up at Soba University Hospital to provide an integrated high quality medical care for Mycetoma patients Research Programmes

The research programmes and projects carried out in the Center are of a multi-disciplinary approach focusing on basic research into the causes and progression of Mycetoma, the translation of new knowledge and technology into novel treatments and the provision of s

tate-of-the-art patient care. Health Education & Community Development

Staff members organized many field trips to various Mycetoma endemic areas where patients were seen and treated and public health education was conducted. Organisation of Scientific Meetings

MRC organized many conferences, seminars and meetings; the aim of these was to act as media through which medical and health members and scientists interested in Mycetoma could maintain contact. They were also intended to be a forum for informal discussion, for exchanging and updating of knowledge and experience, for maintaining continuous medical education in Mycetoma and for providing advice and recommendations to concerned authorities. MRC Staff:

The staff members are of medical, health and science backgrounds; they are interested in all facets related to Mycetoma and have good track records in patients’ management, teaching, research and community development. Through clinical and basic research, the staff of the center has continually explored new approaches to patients’ management.
