Good luck COG-Train team. We wish you every success in your future plans.

Congratulations to our incredible team of #PathogenGenomicsCapacity course organisers and instructors collaborating together from @eventsWCS, @COG_Train, @EPHIEthiopia, and @ExeterMed. 👏🏾 #GlobalHealth #Genomics @ConnectingSci

🎓 Just unlocked the secrets of SARS-CoV-2's genomic structure! 🧬✨ Completed an amazing course on Making Sense of Genomic Data: COVID-19 Web-Based Bioinformatics by @eventsWCS and @COG_Train 🔍🌍

With the aim of continuing to strengthen national and regional genomic surveillance capacity on the continent, @AfricaCDC, in collaboration with @ASLM_News and @inrb_kinshasa welcome 20 participants from 9 African countries (Burundi, Chad, Cameroon, CAR, DRC, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Republic of Congo and São Tomé) for a Training Workshop from May 29 to June 9, 2023 on Viral Genome Sequencing and Bioinformatics Analyses. This activity takes place at @inrb_kinshasa through its @labgenpath.

Very pleased to have contributed in @COG_Train course on #genomic #surveillance of #SARSCoV2 & #policy COG-Train Final Newsletter 📫: mailchi.mp/90e24a3fede3/c…

✍️ “Working together with other teams and groups was the best option for us, because we could go further and produce more,” says Dr Paola Cristina Resende @PaolaResende1 Virologist at @fiocruz ⬇️ cogconsortium.uk/there-are-so-m…

❗️ Almost 2,000 participants enrolled on our course 'A Practical Guide for SARS-CoV-2 Whole Genome Sequencing' #WGS @eventsWCS You can join the course here 👇 futurelearn.com/courses/a-prac…

🚨 Exciting news!🚨 @WHO has published guiding principles on #CollaborativeSurveillance We propose an ambitious set of capabilities for strengthening capacity & collaboration, enhancing public health intelligence & evidence-based decision-making who.int/publications/i…

Very excited to have been in Geneva for the last 5 days with @WHO to launch the International Pathogen Surveillance Network. Lots of work as we form a global community of practice. An option piece on its significance to other pathogens - devex.com/news/opinion-a…

✍️ The goal of the project was to increase community understanding SARS-CoV-2, its mutations, variant waves & vaccine development, dispel myths, and increase vaccine uptake in Malawi. cogconsortium.uk/cog-train-laun…

📝 The project included a training course in communicating scientific and health information, particularly about SARS-CoV-2 variants, for health professionals across the three main regions in the country 🇲🇼 cogconsortium.uk/cog-train-laun…

📻 The project included a series of radio programmes on national and community radio stations to educate local communities about the SARS-CoV-2 virus and wider topics, such as vaccines and virus mutations.

To support vaccine uptake for various pathogens, the project team contributed to the launch of a comic book focusing on vaccines and vaccine uptake, entitled “One for All, All for One”. The book is available in English and Chichewa, Yao and Tumbuka. cogconsortium.uk/cog-train-laun…

✍️ The expert local insights of the project team on the ground in Malawi ensured that the training was targeted to local audiences. This project further reinforces the @COG_Train ethos of working with local in-country experts to achieve the best results. cogconsortium.uk/cog-train-laun…
