摘要
In this Science & Society article, the authors provide their personal experience of treating children in low and middle-income countries in sub-Saharan Africa. The authors discuss how conducting clinical trials in this environment can be used for the benefit of all paediatric patients, and outline the measures that need to be put in place to ensure that the outcomes in improved care are met.
