Community Development

Scientific seminars, workshops and conferences are rarely accessible to researchers in Ghana and low-and-middle income countries. Many researchers in silos and do not get access to novel research findings due to limited opportunities to attend conferences and seminars. Our goal is to facilitate the hosting of international subject-specific events in Ghana and across Africa. We work with international organizations and partners to bring this initiative to fruition.

Student and Interns Feedback

Interning at Sena Institute of Technology (SIT) over the summer break was a remarkably enriching international experience. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, my internship was conducted remotely where I worked on the Sub-Saharan African Genome Repository; data science research using the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) tools such as Pubmed and Primer BLAST to mine published literature.
