暫譯: 滿足非洲需求的生物化學與分子生物學進展：第28屆南非生物化學與分子生物學學會會議論文集

Addmore Shonhai is Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Venda in South Africa. He is a council member of the South African Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, a member of the Academy of Science of South Africa (mASSAf), and a fellow of the Royal Society of South Africa (FRSSAf). His research focuses on the role of heat shock proteins in the development of infectious agents. He is a recipient of several awards, including a prestigious Georg Forster Fellowship (awarded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany) and a Fulbright (USA) Visiting Scholar Fellowship.

Abidemi Paul Kappo is a full Professor of Biochemistry and Group Leader of the Molecular Biophysics and Structural Biology Group at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. He is a structural biologist. He obtained his PhD from the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. His research focuses on applying structural biology and structural bioinformatics techniques to discover and design new/novel biopharmaceuticals against infectious diseases. Prof Kappo has served as the President of the South African Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (SASBMB) and is presently the Vice-President of the Federation of African Societies of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

Jo-Anne de la Mare is an Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Bioinformatics at Rhodes University and current President of the South African Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. She obtained her PhD in Biochemistry from Rhodes University. As the Principal Investigator of the Female Cancers Research at Rhodes University (FemCR2U) group, her research focuses on preclinical drug discovery for female cancers including triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and cervical cancer. She is passionate about transforming the Higher Education landscape and empowering young black women through education and training in scarce skills.

Addmore Shonhai是南非文達大學的生物化學教授。他是南非生物化學與分子生物學學會的理事會成員，南非科學院(mASSAf)的成員，以及南非皇家學會(FRSSAf)的院士。他的研究專注於熱休克蛋白在傳染病原體發展中的角色。他獲得了多項獎項，包括由德國亞歷山大·馮·洪堡基金會頒發的著名Georg Forster Fellowship，以及美國富布萊特訪問學者獎學金。

Abidemi Paul Kappo是南非約翰尼斯堡大學的生物化學全職教授及分子生物物理與結構生物學小組的組長。他是一位結構生物學家，獲得南非西開普大學的博士學位。他的研究專注於應用結構生物學和結構生物信息學技術來發現和設計針對傳染病的新型生物製藥。Kappo教授曾擔任南非生物化學與分子生物學學會(SASBMB)的會長，目前是非洲生物化學與分子生物學學會聯合會的副會長。

Jo-Anne de la Mare是羅德斯大學的副教授及生物化學、微生物學與生物信息學系主任，並且是南非生物化學與分子生物學學會的現任會長。她在羅德斯大學獲得生物化學博士學位。作為羅德斯大學女性癌症研究小組(FemCR2U)的首席研究員，她的研究專注於針對女性癌症的臨床前藥物發現，包括三陰性乳腺癌(TNBC)和子宮頸癌。她熱衷於改變高等教育的格局，並通過教育和培訓稀缺技能來賦權年輕的黑人女性。
