Africa’s nextAMR scientistsstart here.
Learn at the bench, not from slides. Our trainers run Cameroon’s leading research on antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, and they teach you exactly how they do it.
Sub-Saharan Africa has about 90 researchers per million people. Europe and North America have more than 4,000. Here, every scientist counts. Africa will need far more microbiologists, molecular biologists and genomicists to make its own diagnostics, treatments and vaccines. We train them.
ELEVATE
Empowering Learners through Excellence, Vision and Advanced Training Experiences
Six intensive days in our laboratories. Less time listening, more time doing: you culture, extract, amplify, interpret and troubleshoot, then leave able to do what you could not do the week before.
Join the next cohort
ELEVATE Act 2 ran from 14 to 19 September 2026. Places are limited: register your interest now and be first to hear when Act 3 opens.
Bring ELEVATE to you
Sponsor a cohort, co-host a module, or have us deliver ELEVATE in your own laboratory, tailored to your team.
Master the bench
Culture, susceptibility testing, DNA extraction, PCR and gel electrophoresis, on real bacterial isolates.
Troubleshoot like a pro
Interpret data critically and fix failed experiments so your results are reproducible.
Design fundable research
Turn an AMR question into a concept note, with our grant-writing sprint.
Lead your career
Biosafety, quality and the leadership skills to grow in African research.
Training built for your team.
Pick a course or let us design one around your goals. Every programme is practical, taught by working AMR scientists, and delivered in our lab or yours.
