FAMCRU Board
?The Family Centre for Research with Ubuntu (FAM-CRU) began as the Children's Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Unit (KID-CRU) in January 2002 and officially opened in September 2003 as a clinical trial unit. It was established through external funding as a result of four simultaneously successful funding applications between 2000 and 2002, which provided the initial essential infrastructure and personnel. The original focus was on HIV and tuberculosis co-infection in children and their mothers. Over time, the scope has broadened to include other infectious diseases. To accommodate the inclusion of adults in January 2013 through a successful application to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), KID-CRU's name changed to FAM-CRU.
