The African Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases (ACEGID), Redeemer’s University, Ede, recently hosted a scientific delegation from CPM International Research Institute for Climate Health as part of activities associated with the programme titled:
“Transforming Clinical Diagnostics with PCR: From Microbiome Analysis to HPV Genotyping.”
The visit formed part of ongoing efforts to strengthen scientific capacity, institutional collaboration, and knowledge exchange in the areas of molecular diagnostics, pathogen genomics, infectious disease surveillance, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and One Health innovation.
The delegation was led by Professor Joseph Omololu-Aso, Professor of Infectious Disease and Climate Change Intervention at Obafemi Awolowo University and Director-General/CEO of CPM International Research Institute for Climate Health.
The visit was undertaken with the support and encouragement of Professor John Akíntúndé Ọládọ̀tun Òkèníyì, Chief Medical Director of Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC), under the growing collaboration framework involving CPM International Research Institute, Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), and OAUTHC.
Scientific Engagement and Facility Tour
Although the scheduled onsite workshop sessions did not proceed as originally planned, the visiting team was warmly received by representatives of Redeemer’s University and ACEGID and was provided an extensive guided tour of the Centre’s facilities.
The delegation had the opportunity to observe cutting-edge infrastructure supporting:
Molecular diagnostics
Pathogen genomics
Genomic surveillance
Bioinformatics & computational biology
Advanced PCR technologies
Infectious disease research
Public health preparedness & outbreak systems
Advancing Climate-Health, Pathogenomics & One Health
The engagement is particularly relevant to ongoing efforts by CPM International Research Institute, OAU, and OAUTHC to strengthen climate-sensitive infectious disease surveillance and implementation science in Nigeria.
Osun State Climate-Health Surveillance Pilot
CPM International Research Institute, working in collaboration with OAUTHC and Obafemi Awolowo University, has commenced implementation activities under the Osun State Climate-Health Surveillance Pilot, serving as an emerging clinical demonstration platform for evidence generation and public health innovation.
Institutional Collaboration & Appreciation
Professor Joseph Omololu-Aso noted that exposure to world-class pathogenomics infrastructure remains essential for the development of sustainable national platforms capable of supporting disease surveillance, outbreak preparedness, precision public health, and translational research.
The visiting delegation expressed profound appreciation to the management and staff of Redeemer’s University and ACEGID for their hospitality, professionalism, and commitment to scientific leadership across Africa.
