Educational mission
Our long-term goal is to train a critical mass of modeling scientists who are:
- retained within the African region
- training the next generation of modelers
- working closely with local NMCPs to provide operational support
- competitive in obtaining grants from international funding agencies and
- closely networked with each other across Africa and beyond.
Faculty enrichment program 2023
We are hosting 3 faculty for an in-person faculty enrichment course in 2023. Course materials are available here.
The 2023 program, "Pilot faculty enrichment program for Sub-Saharan African modelers", is supported by a Project Award from Northwestern's Institute for Global Health and a Mission Advancement Award from the Department of Preventive Medicine.

AMMnet
We are founding members of the Applied Malaria Modeling Network (AMMnet).
AMMnet is a community of malaria modelers, data analysts, and partners who develop and apply quantitative tools to support decision-making and operations in malaria-endemic countries. AMMnet provides an open and respectful collaborative forum and support system for knowledge-sharing and constructive feedback with the goal of improving the quality of analytical support offered to malaria programs.
