Dear attendees, colleagues and guests,
It is our distinct privilege to welcome you to the SASBi | SAGS BIO2026 STUDENT SYMPOSIUM. This year, under our umbrella theme, “African Genomes in the Global Village: Landscapes to celebrate diversity” we gather in the beautiful coastal city of Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) to explore cutting-edge genomic advancements, foster cross-discipline collaborations and celebrate diversity inherent to African genomic landscapes.
This booklet serves as your roadmap for the event, inside you find the session schedules, bios of our esteemed keynotes and panelists, and local insights to help you enjoy your stay.
Thank you for bringing your expertise and passion to this African dialogue.
Sincerely,
