it is shaping up to be a convergence of ideas, people, and possibilities that could redefine how genomics is applied to health across the continent. Here are what to expect at 2026 Genomics and Health Symposium. Read Here: ighresearch.org/en/what-to-exp…
As the Genomics and Health Symposium 2026 approaches, anticipation is building across Africa’s scientific and health communities. Hosted by the Institute of Genomics and Global Health (IGH), this year’s gathering promises to be more than just another academic event;
We’re glad to have Dr. Elyse Stachler and Kyle McMahon from the Broad Institute at IGH for a two-week visit. As part of the Sentinel Project, we’re working together to validate the mCARMEN assay, a CRISPR-based technique that allows multiple samples to be tested simultaneously.
Personnel of the Nigerian Armed Forces will train at IGH in clinical research and genomics, strengthening disease surveillance and response through a new partnership between MODHIP and IGH. #GlobalHealth #Genomics #ResearchCapacity #Training #IGH
Named among 10 global health leaders by EDCTP, our Director Christian Happi’s work from Ebola to SARS-CoV-2 shows the power of African-led science shaping global health. Read more: global-health-edctp3.europa.eu/results-and-in…
We’re gearing up for the 2nd edition of the Genomics and Health Symposium. Details coming soon. Watch this space. #Genomics2026 #GlobalHealth #Research #GenomicsandHealthSymposium #IGH
