I have long experience in working together with West African researchers, mainly from Burkina Faso and Benin. Our work is in the field of microbiology, both research and capacity building. The projects concentrate on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and pathogenic bacteria in humans and environment. We organize training for students and experts in the related subjects.
