We are excited to publish our initial efforts at bringing Data Science to bear on Anti Microbial Drug Resistance (AMR) research in Africa. @DSI_Africa @aphrc @IDIMakerere @IGHSatUCSF @Fogarty_NIH @AceUganda.
Our work assessing machine learning's efficacy in predicting AMR across African genomic datasets is out. Promising findings for LMICs with limited genomic data and high #AMR burden. Thanks @IDIMakerere @NIAIDBioIT @EANBiT_Project & @osg_htc for compute.

Happy to have collaborated with @TACG_Group on this paper. @AceUganda @NIAIDBioIT @IDIMakerere @MakCoCIS @DSI_Africa @H3Africa.
Delighted to see our new paper - the first ever GWAS of cystatin C Kidney function in continental Africa published @eBioMedicine . We reported two novel loci and validated known loci. Work led by an excellent PhD student @Richardmayanja6 @MRC_Uganda .

Grateful for the immense contribution @TACG_Group has made to @AceUganda bioinformatics capacity development efforts.
A new paper led by @Chriskintu2021 from our group @TACG_Group is published today @BioMedCentral . We reported a novel variant in ELN gene associated with kidney function in African ancestry individuals.

Leveraging generative AI for health improvement.
@AceUganda excited to have support from the @gatesfoundation to leverage generative #AI for #Health equity and pandemic preparedness using language models like #GPT. Supporting informed decision making for health care workers. #AI implementation in LMICs.
