The forum is one of the key pillars of AYS; AYS was established to provide young and talented scientists, across Africa, opportunities for them to reach out to the world and contribute meaningfully for the development of our dear continent, Africa. This forum will serve as a fulcrum for the birth, fertilization and launching of ideas to the world. The mentees will have unrestricted access to mentors, online and offline, to guide them through in their career. Our mentors have been selected and still been selected with a high standard for scientific excellence, integrity, and love for an impactful life.
