Adolescent views on participating in HIV biomedical research during pregnancy
Pregnant adolescents are often excluded from biomedical HIV research participation, resulting in less evidence to inform safe and effective treatment and prevention strategies. We explored adolescent views on enrollment in biomedical HIV research during pregnancy via in-depth interviews with ever-pregnant adolescents living with and at-risk of HIV age 15–20 years in Botswana and Malawi. A semi-structured interview guide explored decision-making a…
Advancing the course of HIV genomics research in Africa
BOX The use of genomics methods and technologies for HIV research and public health holds potential in reducing the HIV burden in sub-Saharan Africa
Understanding cultural values, norms and beliefs that may impact participation in genome‐editing related research
Gene‐editing research is a complex science and foreign in most communities including Botswana. Adopting a qualitative deliberative framework with 109 participants from 7 selected ethnic communities in Botswana, we explored the perceptions of local communities on cultural values, norms, and beliefs that may motivate or deter likely participation in the use of gene‐editing related research. What emerged as the ethnic community's motivators for rese…
Participants’ Preferences and Reasons for Wanting Feedback of Individual Genetic Research Results From an HIV-TB Genomic Study
The feedback of individual results of genomics research is an ethical issue. However, which genetic results African participants would like to receive and why, remains unclear. A qualitative study was conducted to collect data from 44 adolescents and 49 parents/caregivers of adolescents enrolled in a genomic study in Botswana. Almost all the participants wanted to receive genetic results. Parents and caregivers wanted to receive results across al…
Mapping research ethics committees in Africa
Health research initiatives worldwide are growing in scope and complexity, particularly as they move into the developing world. Expanding health research activity in low‐ and middle‐income countries has resulted in a commensurate rise in the need for sound ethical review structures and functions in the form of Research Ethics Committees (RECs). The urgent need for continued capacity development in Africa has necessitated research initiatives to i…
