Was a great two weeks of learning at the Holmes lab and Sydney ID. Excited to bring these methods to Africa and apply them @ceri_news

So honoured to be part of this amazing network of dedicated and hard working scientists! @UWARN_RC @ceri_news @LUIZALC55150079 @Mittenavoig

Been trying to get answers from @VFSGlobal for 48h now, but emails goes unanswered and phone calls gets dropped. Is there a competent @VFSGlobal employee that actually cares who I can speak to in South Africa (NL)?

Fascinating presentation by Prof. Darren Martin today for the first seminar in our new facility, followed by a light lunch. @DarrenM98230782 Hope to see you all for the next one! @StellenboschUni @SUhealthsci #seminar #training #phylogenetics #bioinformatics #capacitybuilding

Excited that the 27th International Virus Evolution & Molecular Epidemiology (VEME) workshop will be in Africa for the 2nd time! Application open: 4 modules, from basic to advanced bioinformatics analysis & genomics public health to 150 participants - https://t.co/6vq7h6Q4lU

We're looking for a postdoc #bioinformatics expert to apply their knowledge and skills to #RareDiseases Contact me directly. Funding for 2 years initially @RareGenomicsRSA @ARDI_Africa @SuMBHG @MatiesResearch

Nice hike in the meadow outside Oxford to recharge the batteries after a busy and productive day

I’ve been mistreated at @Airport_FRA by immigration personnel who imagine I want to stay back illegally. My attendance of the @WorldHealthSmt is now in doubt. I’m happier & safer back home in Africa. They invite you then mistreat you.

A large network of African scientists has analyzed the first 100,000 #SARSCoV2 genomic sequences from the continent, characterizing the pandemic’s progression and highlighting the dispersal patterns of Variants of Concern, including Delta and #Omicron: https://t.co/S9coStNidJ

Dr. Stephanie van Wyk teaching us about the basics of multiple sequence alignments #NGS #BRICS #Genomics

Dr. James E. San is ready to teach us about viral genome assemblies using Genome Detective. #NGS #BRICS

Dr. Naidoo ready to kick us off for day 2 of the NGS-BRICS workshop. Aspects of Next Generation Sequencing

Kick-off to the first ever NGS-BRICS workshop on viral sequencing and phylogenetics @9AM GMT! #BRICS #Genomics #Surveillance #COVID19

Our team @krisp_news celebrating the pan-African genomics paper in Science! A great coincidences as 3 co-authors from Senegal, Botswana & Kenya were together as they are visiting as fellows in SA! Together, Africa produces great science & capacitates each other! #AfricaGenomics

Immensely proud of what we can accomplish as a continent if we work together. Only possible due to work done at ground level by countless folks across Africa. #AfricaCDC #AfricaPGI #genomics

Finally out! The evolving SARS-CoV-2 epidemic in Africa: Insights from rapidly expanding genomic surveillance - the results of a labour of love and massive ongoing collaboration. >100k genomes generated and analysed in 52 countries. https://t.co/QhMdyJ0BU0

Thanks all the amazing colleagues for the wonderful moments at #VEME2022. Can’t wait to see all of you again next year in South Africa. 🫶🏼🦠🤓

In Botswana ... 9⃣5⃣% of people living with #HIV know their status 9⃣8⃣% of people living with HIV are on treatment 9⃣8⃣% of people on treatment are virally suppressed Learn more about Botswana's achievement of surpassing @UNAIDS 2025 HIV targets: https://t.co/XAGg1cK59N
