ABOUT US
AAU was formed to bring together practising anesthesiologists to advocate for better work conditions and higher standards of practice for anesthesiologists operating in Uganda, a country where the practice of anesthesiology is just taking root with many people especially the general public not having well-defined knowledge of the relevance, importance and role of anesthesiologists in attaining the highest standard of health care possible and thus improving health outcomes for patients and the public in general.

The Association of Anesthesiologists of Uganda (AAU) and UCSF’s Center for Health Equity in Surgery and Anesthesia are launching Uganda’s first research and development lab focused on evaluating medical devices like pulse oximeters on healthy individuals. They are hiring a Senior Clinical Research Coordinator/Lab Manager to oversee and manage clinical research activities.
The role involves independent coordination and administration of one or more clinical studies, requiring advanced knowledge and leadership. The individual will be responsible for implementing and managing a wide range of research projects—both local and multicenter trials—and will liaise with various stakeholders including UCSF, AAU, Makerere and Busitema universities, and international partners.
