We are lead of the STAIRS Network, a collaboration of eight research institutions in Africa and Germany that aim to foster research in sepsis. This includes identification of biomarkers for severe sepsis to aid in diagnosis and management and evaluation of different digital health strategies for improving sepsis care in-hospital and post-discharge for children and adults. This Network will leverage our findings from the Smart Discharges Program and ARCS
