CREATOR Building to Expand MLW‘s Capacity

Malawi Liverpool Wellcome (MLW)’s Chief Operations Officer (COO) Aubrey Chalira has said the CREATOR Building, which is currently under construction at the MLW premises in Blantyre, will expand research and clinical excellence.
Chalira said the new infrastructure will raise research activities within the institution by about 30 percent by offering post-graduate specialists’ clinical training.

“The value of CREATOR for Malawi and in the region will be a step-change in the scale of clinical research and a reversal of the accepted norm of trainees leaving Malawi and the region to source high-quality specialist education abroad. The CREATOR Building will be central in training the next generation of scientists,” he said.
