All good things must come to an end. Closing ceremony #ICHG2023
Prof Wonkam: "young investigators global genetics, Unite!" Carry the torch forward.
Be grateful to be here and celebrate science!

I am not sure where I learned the most about #PoisonExon leading to #Dravet #SCN1A channelopathy: @HC_Happ dancing with her colleagues or @HC_Happ talking at #ICHG2023? This is a cool #dance video! You'll enjoy it!

So many researchers could not make it to #ICHG2023 due to visa issues. We need to do something about this. How is it possible that scientists from Fez, Mexico and Kinshasa can't travel to Cape Town? I am sorry @GMubungu @cgonzagaj and others!

I am like a student (a bit anxious) presenting at #ICHG2023! My poster "Ion channels to sequences genes coding for ion channels" #IonChannels #MembraneTransporters #GenomicsInAfrica #AcademicSabbatica @nanopore

My students have posters - pls pop by and speak to them to hear about our work @RareGenomicsRSA
@theron_alannah @RafiyaIsmail @jessica_cormick

And 📢: I am hiring! #PostDoc #bioinformatics #genomics #PhD - pls contact me at #ICHG2023 or email me.

Do you know what are and how to study genetic #channelopathies? Let's meet at #ICHG2023 on Sat. morning. Limited to 9 attendees! Sign in at the @AfSHGenetics booth. DM me if you have questions!

Powerful talk from Shomarka Keita covering the importance of Critical thinking, being aware to #racism and several bias that affect our knowledge. As #scientists & science #communicators we have to be aware of language bias. "#Data does not speaks by itself". #ICHG2023

Prof. Shomarka Keita #ICHG2023 made my day with his talk about "Epistemic Injustice"! Read his proposal of a pledge for @AfSHGenetics society and members! #GenomicsInAfrica

At the #ICHG2023 in #SouthAfrica @SwissIonChannel and Nada El Makhzen are presenting preliminary results. We have made progress towards our goal, but we still need your help to better diagnose #CysticFibrosisinAfrica. https://wemakeit.com/projects/cystic-fibrosis-in-africa @wemakeit @paodecarli @ARDI_Africa

Call to Action from Dr. Francis Collins at #ICHG2023: Let's create "Africa Genomics Centres of Excellence." Now! #GenomicsInAfrica @ARUA_News @guildeu
