Dr. Samuel Obakiro invited to participate in the VW Summer School, be held at the Future Africa Campus, University of Pretoria, South Africa from 15-19 May 2023.

The Summer School, supported by Volkswagen Stiftung is being offered to African and European 
early researchers in the field of natural products and compounds. It aims to equip researchers with 
the knowledge and know-how of steering their natural product research toward successful 
commercialization. The chosen participants will have the chance of exploring areas relating to 
standardization, quality control, and entrepreneurship. During this workshop participants will prepare 
a presentation whereby they should select an African herbal preparation and present how they 
plan to develop and ultimately commercialize the chosen product.
