Description

Tobi Olajide and co-authors describe a 2024 student research hub at a medical college in Ibadan, Nigeria. Africa holds a large share of the world's people and disease load, yet it makes a small share of world research. Weak labs, thin funds, and few doctor-scientists hold output back.

The hub, founded in 2019, pairs set programs with mentoring to grow a research habit among medical students. The paper sets out how the hub runs day to day and what it has achieved so far. The authors offer the model as a frame other schools in Nigeria can copy to lift local research.
