Turning Discoveries into Treatments: Immunology in Africa.

Faith H A Osier1, Henry C Mwandumba2, Clive M Gray3.   

Abstract

An exemplar outcome of an immunology-based intervention is vaccine development; the current COVID-19 pandemic is a case in point. Can we build an immunology research ecosystem in Africa that nurtures discovery and enables translation? We see African immunologists as key agents of change and discuss obstacles and opportunities.
