And that’s a wrap! Merci à tous! Those who joined us in person & online, CSRS in Abidjan for the hosting support & @cziscience.bsky.social for the funding to make the meeting possible! We’re leaving #ABIC_CM2024 inspired and energised for the future of bioimaging & community in Africa! 🔬🌍🇨🇮🙌
What a day! The 2nd day of #ABIC_CM2024 flew past! Some highlights include presentations and discussions around microscopy infrastructure, access and advocacy in Africa, and interactive discussions about building visions for the microscopy community & research in Africa.
Our afternoon session has focused on microscopy training initiatives in Africa. The training and working group overview from Lize Engelbrecht was followed by updates on the “Science from the Diaspora” seminar series and the Cell Profiler train-the-trainer program from Nehal & Naomi #ABIC_CM2024
Closing up session 2, Samira Benadda from France BioImaging shares about starting up core facilities in African institutions- for better research, education and outreach, outputs, visibility, sustainability and funding! #ABIC_CM2024
Happiness Netshimbupfe from South African BioImaging shares about the efforts to map the South African bioimaging ecosystem, and some of the challenges faced in South Africa- with strong resonance across the whole continent! #ABIC_CM2024
Session 2 highlighting various networks and initiatives in Africa kicked off strong! We heard from Prof Jeremie Zoueu about AFSINET and the Ivorian Initiative. Then Yaw Aniweh from WAMBIAN gave a strong argument for the power of local communities strengthening basic research in Africa #ABIC_CM24 🇨🇮🔬
