  • Institutional Culture at the Core

    Peter Bulli, Erick Okuto et al.ARTICLEGlobal Perspectives2026

    The role of policy and research institutions in sub-Saharan Africa in shaping the region’s science and development agenda cannot be underestimated, and the role of externally funded initiatives designed to strengthen the efficiency of the institutions should also not be overlooked. However, persistent challenges remain in the form of gaps within capacities, structural organizations, and sociocultural dynamics of institutions that prevent the regi…

  • The stifling burden of climate change on African public healthcare systems

    Open AccessJack Ogony, Judith Mangeni et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Background: Climate change is the greatest health threat of the 21st century to global health and primary health care. Despite being the least contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, Africa is disproportionately facing severe impacts of climate change, particularly on its health systems which is already neglected and underfunded. The crisis poses a fundamental threat to human health by undermining healthcare infrastructure, straining work…

  • Public health facility vulnerabilities, preparedness, and health outcomes for Plasmodium falciparum and dengue virus-infected children under 5 years with acute febrile illnesses in Western Kenya

    Open AccessJack Ogony, Diana Menya et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Introduction: Climate change and infectious health risks are threatening healthcare systems, cascading into devastating consequences globally. This crisis is altering the footprints of many vector-borne disease control programs. Sub-Saharan countries face complex challenges as patterns of vector-borne diseases transform, causing more than 17% of the global mortality. Climate change-related disasters are increasing worldwide, with Sub-Saharan Afri…

  • The potential role of cultural and religious healing practices in shaping community vulnerability to highly infectious diseases in western Kenya

    Open AccessNaomi Wambui Ng’ang’a, Reuben Onkoba Momanyi et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Cultural and religious practices and beliefs have historically played a significant role in the management of disease outbreaks globally. This study explored how such beliefs and healing practices shape the vulnerability of communities to highly infectious diseases in three border counties in western Kenya-Homa Bay, Bungoma, and West Pokot. Using an empirical qualitative research design, we conducted 45 key informant interviews with 13 traditiona…

  • The Simons Genome Diversity Project

    Open AccessSwapan Mallick, Heng Li et al.ARTICLENature2016

    Here we report the Simons Genome Diversity Project data set: high quality genomes from 300 individuals from 142 diverse populations. These genomes include at least 5.8 million base pairs that are not present in the human reference genome. Our analysis reveals key features of the landscape of human genome variation, including that the rate of accumulation of mutations has accelerated by about 5% in non-Africans compared to Africans since divergenc…
