In this section of the website, we present the Genomics Africa Fellows. We believe that it is important to prospective fellows to see the experience that we are providing as part of this capacity building and fellowship programme.
We will be funding 100 fellows to spend time within specialized genomics labs in Africa. The first fellows at CERI-KRISP and fellowship. Contact us and the Africa CDC Pathogen Genomics Initiative to participate in this fellowship.
