12th GABRIEL network meeting 2023 group

From May 31 to June 2, 2023, over 100 delegates representing researchers, physicians, specialists in laboratory diagnostics, academics, and scientists, coming from both the public and private sectors of 16 different countries, meet in person and online in Yaoundé, Cameroon, for the 12th GABRIEL network international meeting. In this newsletter you will find highlights of this meeting, including summaries of speeches and the key discussion.

The GABRIEL network international meetings have become a platform for members to share experiences, present new collaborative opportunities, review advances in quality assessment, and examine the most recent scientific research in infectious diseases. This year's program specifically addresses outbreaks and surveillance of emerging pathogens with a special focus on the African continent. Also discussed are topics related to infectious diseases, tuberculosis, antimicrobial resistance, and acute respiratory infections that have been presented in past meetings. This symposium provided an opportunity to identify the gaps and pitfalls that hamper accurate and effective diagnosis of infectious diseases and offers a knowledge-sharing platform for improved surveillance strategies and clinical management and prevention.

As in previous meetings, the program included the GABRIEL network ‘Young Scientist Award‘, created to enable promising young scientists from low- and lower-middle-income countries to advance their careers by giving them the opportunity to present their research at international scientific meetings. Two winners were selected for this year's best presentations.
