Teaching and Research in Natural Science for Development (TReND) in Africa
Get involved in the scientific development of Sub-Saharan Africa
“TReND in Africa” (Teaching and Research in Neuroscience for Development) is a higher education charity dedicated to improving university level science education and research in sub-Saharan Africa. Run by a small group of young research scientists worldwide, TReND seeks to foster scientific excellence and collaboration in the region through organizing local neuroscience courses for young African scientists. Moreover, we promote and coordinate the collection of monetary and equipment donations towards the establishment of permanent research facilities at Africa’s top universities. In the future we also envisage the establishment of academic stipends for young African researchers, fostering international projects and collaborations.
