The #GlobalAISummit2025 in Kigali was eye-opening! Powerful insights on AI’s role across sectors, need for infrastructure & access, and ethical use to prevent widening inequalities. Loved the idea: AI = African Intelligence As H.E. Paul Kagame said, Africa must lead, not follow!





🆕 Researchers at Cornell University identified an antibiotic, rifampin, that is 99.9% effective against Salmonella Typhi, the bacterium that causes #typhoid. The likelihood of encountering rifampin-resistant typhoid cases is less than 1 in every 1,000 cases, according to the findings.

🌍A new study, led by the #MAAP research consortium, covering 14 African countries from 2016-2019, published PLOS Medicine, finds resistance to critical antibiotics used to treat severe bacterial infections is widespread and has significant variations. flemingfund.org/publications/a…
