Expanding computational neuroscience education and early exposure across Africa through training, mentorship, and collaboration.
We’re expanding computational neuroscience knowledge and early exposure across Africa—so more young scholars can learn, grow, and contribute.
The initiative aims to expand computational neuroscience knowledge, education, and early exposure across Africa. By collaborating with established institutions and programs, ACNEI broadens access, strengthens representation, and supports young African scholars to contribute to local and global scientific advancement.
To provide a future where young Africans are active contributors in global computational neuroscience research—driving innovation, discovery, and leading transformative projects with global impact.
Four practical pathways for learning, research, and community building in computational neuroscience across Africa.
Early exposure and hands-on learning for high school and undergraduate learners—through regional hubs, mentorship, and guided projects.
Connecting researchers, institutions, and resources across Africa to support collaboration, shared learning, and joint publications.
Free tools and learning resources—scripts, notebooks, tutorials, and low-cost hardware ideas—to reduce barriers to learning and research.
Beginner-friendly virtual workshops in neuroscience, programming, and data science—practical sessions designed for real research problems.
