Institutional Linkages and Industrial partnership

To strengthen collaborative research with other research institutions, the Directorate is in the process of establishing collaborations with institutions such as Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) to complement the available research infrastructure. Furthermore, the County Government of Kiambu (COKIA) and MKU came together to establish the County Health Research Forum and to strengthen University Ethical Review Committee. The two entities are holding discussions aimed at establishing a Cancer Registry for the Kiambu County to be hosted by Mount Kenya University.
