    I am currently the Principal Investigator of the Data Science for Health Discovery and Innovation in Africa (DS-I Arica) (NIH funded eLwazi ODSP CC Project) and H3Africa Administrative Coordinating Centres (H3ACC) based at the University of Cape Town where my key role is to lead and manage a team that supports these Consortia of over 500 members each. Our core responsibilities include administration, communications, fiscal management, and coordination of all consortium activities, including networking, training, datathons, and policy development. One of our major objectives is to connect with and harness the skills and experience of the Data Science Community toward developing scalable healthcare solutions in Africa.
