This chapter presents a case study, set in the context of an Ebola outbreak, designed for readers to explore the challenges of balancing the demands of internationally agreed protocols for medical research with demands in the field during an epidemic. The case study also takes a look at the nature of social relationships between local research staff and community members. The chapter includes an introductory sheet with guidelines for the training facilitator, followed by a handout containing the case study, questions to prompt discussion, reflection points based on one's own experiences, and a list of suggested further readings.
