  • About Us

    Oxford University Clinical Research Unit in Vietnam

    OUCRU has been conducting medical research in Vietnam and other countries in Southeast Asia for 30 years (www.oucru.org). Our vision is to have local, regional and global impact on health by leading a locally driven research programme on infectious diseases in Southeast Asia.

    OUCRU is part of the University of Oxford, United Kingdom, and its research is funded predominantly by the Wellcome Trust, UK. We are embedded within the government healthcare system of Vietnam. We have around 250 staff working in offices and laboratories within the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, Ho Chi Minh city, and around 50 staff working within the National Hospital for Tropical Diseases in Hanoi. We conduct research that aims to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases.
