Drug Discovery Africa

The University of Ghana and WCAIR invite you to join us in Accra from 12-14th March 2025. Our aim is showcase African led drug discovery research against endemic infectious diseases. The conference will bring together leading drug discovery researchers from across Africa and those from Industry and Product Partner Development organisations working alongside them. The conference aims to strengthen existing networks, generate new collaborations and share knowledge. 

We welcome attendees at all stages of their career. Join us for invited keynotes, selected talks from early career researchers, and networking opportunities.

There will be travel bursaries to support the attendance of early career researchers from across Africa. All African ECRs submitting an abstract for a poster or short-talk will be eligible to apply.
