Our network was launched in June 2020 when five of the largest laboratories of the National Health Laboratory Services (NHLS) and their associated academic institutions in Bloemfontein, Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and Tygerberg were awarded a grant from the DSI and SAMRC. Our goal is to expand the network to also include private diagnostic laboratories and other academic institutions in South Africa and abroad.
