@GCRF_START is a joint UK-Africa project which aims to develop synchrotron research in Africa, funded by STFC through GCRF π
African researchers have the opportunity to work on experiments @DiamondLightSou, researching energy materials and structural biology.
Structural biology has given us an unprecedented insight into the mechanisms behind diseases like #COVID19.
The partnerships @GCRF_START builds between structural biologists in Africa and the UK through #synchrotron science could be vital in any future disease outbreaksπ€
How can collaboration help us advance global research into energy materials?π
Hear how collaboration through @GCRF_START has impacted Dr Pascal Kaienburg's research @UniofOxfordπ
"With the @GCRF_START programme, we do have access to world-class equipment and we can be compared to on a global scale."
- Dr Wilson Mogodi, Chemistry lecturer @UCT_newsπ§ͺ
Hear how collaboration with @DiamondLightSou has given Melissa, a Masters student @UCT_news, the opportunity to reconstruct a #HIV virus for her researchπ«
