New TWAS Plus issue is out

TOP STORY COVID-19 has taken the whole world aback, forcing nations to share new common strategies. Africa has not faced a full pandemic yet, and prepares to take advantage of other nations' experience. Two TWAS Fellows, Shabir Madhi from South Africa and Vincent Titanji of Cameroon, offer a clear vision of what the most important steps will be: coordination, capacity and public hygiene.

IAP TWAS Plus - Vol. 6 No. 3 features three IAP activities:

• More than 50 IAP member academies have collated information on COVID-19, to ensure that reliable data reach the public.
• Could permafrost and Arctic ice hide potential harmful infectious agents ready to emerge from thawing ice? Read the latest IAP publication.
• IAP has launched a new website, with a more intuitive layout, which makes finding information on IAP's programmes, projects and reports on science policy issues easier.

The latest issue and all archived bulletins are available here.
