The CHESA Fellowship: Advancing Collaborations to Build an Integrated Trauma System in Uganda

The CHESA Global Health Equity Fellowship leverages UCSF resources and expertise to cultivate and mentor the next generation of global surgery and anesthesia leaders. For this Grand Rounds, CHESA will provide a brief overview of the fellowship program and highlight a project led by CHESA Fellow alumni Drs. Treasure Ibingira, Martha Namugga, and Caroline Stephens.
