Great news. #OpenLabware is gaining traction in Africa
Folks from @LabMboa in #Cameroon, have developed an #opensource incubator, during the BFOSH project (part of my @mozilla/@OpenSciFellows fellowship). They are now building & selling them on demand and locally! I think this is a major win because:
Thank you @TReNDinAfrica and @Loreal for this opportunity.
We are excited to support Adelaide, a #TReNDinAfrica alumini, who is organising an #outreach for high school girls students in Ghana to create #awareness on the career options in science, expose them to coding and provide them with #mentorship. Thanks to the funding of @Loreal.

Join me in this month's @GOSHCommunity call, as I share my experience promoting #OpenLabware among academics in Ghana through my project, @DLabware. @MozillaScience @TReNDinAfrica @Pharm_Benneh @adelmensah4u @Pharm_jjato @AfricaOSH
Join us in our August community call next Tuesday ☎️ @v_kumbol will share his experience with "DIY Labware: Promoting Open Science Hardware among Ghanaian Academics" Bring your ideas, experience and questions to the discussion! + info ➡️ openhardware.science/about/communit…
We also had a visit by Prof Fleischer, the Dean of @SOP_UHAS and Prof Okine as the teams took turns to share their progress on their projects and challenges that needed assistance. #DIYLabware
On #Day8, @Chagas_AM from @TReNDinAfrica joined us via video link to give a talk on #openscience, #openhardware, opportunities and resources available. He also spoke about the @GOSHCommunity and his @mozilla fellowship BFOSH project. #DIYLabware
On #Day7, #DIYLabware participants working on their projects. There were smiles as some teams overcame hurdles in building their equipment.
The last week of the #DIYLabware workshop was packed as the teams worked to complete their projects. Here's a recap of the week.
To the hardworking team of facilitators, @v_kumbol, @Pharm_Benneh, @adelmensah4u, @Pharm_jjato, @harryakligoh and @BrempongLois who volunteered time and effort. Kudos!!!
It was a joyous climax after 2 weeks of hard work and learning came to an end. Conference attendees were excited about the potential of #openlabware for African science. Thanks to @mozilla and @HelmsleyTrust for funding, and @SOP_UHAS @UHASGhana for supporting this project.
Last Friday, we wrapped up the #DIYLabware workshop with a conference and exhibition at @UHASGhana. @v_kumbol and @Pharm_jjato gave talks on #OpenLabware and #openscience.
