Africa faces both a disproportionate burden of infectious diseases coupled with unmet needs in bioinformatics and data science capabilities which impacts the ability of African biomedical researchers to vigorously pursue research and partner with institutions in other countries. The African Centers of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Data Intensive Science are collaborating with African academic institutions, industry partners, the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in a public-private partnership to address these challenges through enhancing computational infrastructure, fostering the development of advanced bioinformatics and data science skills among local researchers and students and providing innovative emerging technologies for infectious diseases research.
非洲面临着传染病负担过重的问题，同时在生物信息学和数据科学能力方面存在未满足的需求，这影响了非洲生物医学研究人员大力开展研究以及与其他国家机构合作的能力。非洲生物信息学和数据密集型科学卓越中心正在与非洲学术机构、行业合作伙伴、美国国立卫生研究院基金会（FNIH）以及美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）下属的国家过敏和传染病研究所（NIAID）开展公私合作，通过加强计算基础设施、培养当地研究人员和学生的先进生物信息学和数据科学技能以及提供用于传染病研究的创新型新兴技术来应对这些挑战。
