Hosting a GEN-IMPACT Sub-Study within APCC Cohorts - Expression of Interest

Science for Africa Foundation · Kenya

GEN-IMPACT is building genomic and phenotypic capacity across African population cohorts, and this call is the first stage of identifying which cohorts can host a sub-study. The funded work includes harmonised phenotyping, biospecimen collection, and genomic analysis, with explicit priority given to populations that are undersampled in existing genomic datasets—a category most Malawian populations fall into.

Deadline: Expression of Interest: 14 August 2026, 18:00 EATClosed
