What does it take to stay ahead of the next outbreak?
From the genomes of emerging pathogens to AI-powered surveillance systems, the tools reshaping global health are more powerful than ever. But connecting the data, the science, and the response is where the real challenge lies.
This September, as part of the 29th International VEME Workshop in Stellenbosch, we are bringing that conversation into the open.
Prof. @houzhou will show how genomics, climate data and human mobility can be woven together to trace how pathogens emerge and spread across populations. Prof. @MOUGK will examine how AI and digital tools are transforming disease surveillance and what it means to deploy them responsibly when the data is limited.
Two talks. One urgent question: how do we use data and AI to get ahead of outbreaks before they define us?
Join us on 9 September 2026, in person in Stellenbosch or online. The lecture is free and open to all.

From ocean science to science communication, I've learned that you don't have to fit in. You can build new paths and make them impossible to ignore! #PowerOfWomen
Lerato Mvelase has been delivering brilliant performances from Home Affairs until now.
I donβt think she even realises how talented she is as an actress.
Put her in a comedy, drama, or action,and sheβll show you flames!
