Research
The AMPATH consortium, anchored by Moi University and Indiana University, serves a population of over 8 million in its western Kenya and there are currently 170,000 people living with HIV enrolled in care in over 800 care sites. Working with the Kenya Ministry of Health, AMPATH is focused on building a health system in the public sector that leads with care in responding to the needs of the population, including people with diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis as well as non-communicable diseases such as cancer, hypertension, and diabetes. This commitment to care provides the foundation for research to improve lives around the world and bidirectional educational opportunities to train future global health leaders from all member institutions of the partnership.
Moi University and the AMPATH Research Network are working towards meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the 2030 Agenda of global transformation through several aspects of the Kenya partnership. Health has a central position in the agenda through SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and is closely linked to over a dozen targets in other goals related to urban health, equal access to treatments, and non-communicable diseases, among others.
Over 2,200 Kenyan and American medical trainees have participated in the AMPATH program and thousands of Kenyan health care providers have been trained by AMPATH. In addition, Moi University researchers, in collaboration with their AMPATH research partners, have published nearly 1,000 peer-reviewed publications and attracted over $187 million in cumulative funding for AMPATH-related research projects from NIH, CDC, and other sources.
