ABIC Annual Community Meeting 2025

The ABIC Community Meeting is a gathering of Africa’s microscopists, biologists, data scientists, and science community developers for a 2-day event focused on empowering fundamental biology research in Africa. This annual meeting provides a platform for the community to share not only their work and research, but also their experiences, challenges and visions.

Through discussion and brainstorming sessions, the meeting aims to strengthen community ties, identify new avenues of action and advocacy and facilitate dialogue with funders, policymakers and commercial partners.

Who can attend?

Any member of the bioimaging and microscopy community in Africa is eligible to attend the event in person. However, there is a maximum venue capacity of 40 people and registration will be based on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Additionally, some sessions will be streamed online for participation by those who are unable to attend in person.
