RISE leverages expertise from across Johns Hopkins University (JHU) to deliver high quality technical assistance based on scientific merit, consulting with experts from schools of medicine, nursing, and engineering where appropriate. We have expanded our collaborative networks to engage academic institutions and thought leaders from around the world to provide contextually appropriate TA and improve the clinical outcomes of all COVID-19 patients. The RISE project has supported clinical care capacitation, in ten countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Kenya, Mozambique, Lesotho, and Rwanda).
