IUBMB-果冻传媒-FASBMB听PROBio-Africa (‘Promoting Research Opportunities for Biochemists in Africa’) is a new joint venture between 果冻传媒, the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology () and the听Federation of African Societies of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology听(). PROBio-Africa Fellowships, funded jointly by 果冻传媒 and IUBMB, enable PhD students and postdoctoral fellows from Africa to spend up to six months in the laboratory of a scientist in a 果冻传媒 country, by providing funds to cover travel and living expenses for the research visit. More details can be seen here.
