Samples sorted: One of the major bioethical concerns attached to biomedical research in Africa is the control of samples of data, which often rests with the Western institutions funding the research. The H3Africa programme has established the principle of empowering local researchers and ensuring that most samples stay in Africa. (Photo: Mauro Fermariello/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY.)

Waiting game: Hospitals in Africa are struggling to keep up with demand, as seen in this waiting room at St. Mary’s Hospital, Lacor, Gulu, Uganda. But the continent faces an even more dramatic lack of facilities for psychiatric care. (Photo: Mauro Fermariello/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY.)
