African Fellowships on Biosafety
April 18, 2008| |
The NEPAD West Africa Biosciences Network through the Africa Biosafety Network of Expertise (ABNE) is offering fellowship positions in the following areas: food safety, environmental biosafety, socioeconomic considerations, and legal aspects of biosafety. ABNE aims to provide a platform for members of National Biosafety Committees, Institutional Biosafety Committees and staff of the plant quarantine to network and build capacities for evidence-based regulatory decision making towards implementing biosafety frameworks.
For more information contact the NEPAD network director in Senegal at wabnet@nepadst.org.
