Mulago Hospital, Haji Musa Kasule Road, Kampala, Uganda

The Joint Clinical Research Center (JCRC) is a premier Ugandan medical research and healthcare institution dedicated to the fight against HIV/AIDS and other infectious and non-communicable diseases, with a mission to conduct quality medical research, provide advanced care, and build capacity for health systems in Africa. Established in 1991 through a collaboration between the Ugandan Ministries of Health, Defence, and Makerere University, JCRC has grown into a globally respected center of excellence, renowned for groundbreaking research, innovative treatment approaches, and contributions to global health knowledge.

The organization promotes a collaborative, multidisciplinary work culture that values scientific integrity, teamwork, and professional development, offering diverse career opportunities in clinical research, public health, and laboratory sciences, with flexible and supportive work environments. JCRC's business model is rooted in research-to-policy translation, community-based interventions, and partnerships with international health bodies, enabling it to operate a network of regional sites across Uganda and influence health outcomes beyond its borders.

Its core values—excellence, ethics, innovation, equity, and service—are reflected in its daily operations and commitment to corporate social responsibility through community health programs, outreach, and training initiatives. With its robust infrastructure and impactful work, JCRC continues to be a key driver in advancing healthcare in Africa. More information is available at www.jcrc.org.ug.
