Five years ago, CERI set out to build Africa’s capacity to detect, respond to and contain its own epidemics. Today, more than 900 trained fellows across the continent are proof that it is working.
Whether you spent 10 days or 4 months with us, the African STARS fellowship and CERI’s wider training programmes connected you to a community of scientists shaping the continent’s response to infectious disease. This September, that community comes together for the first time.
As part of the Stellenbosch University Annual Homecoming Weekend, CERI hosts its inaugural Fellows and African STARS Reunion; an exclusive gathering of 60 fellows and alumni for a morning of networking, peer connection and dialogue on where African science goes next.
A R200 ticket gives you access to the full weekend:
