2 days to go — SMART Africa MRI Workshop 2026
2 days to go for the 5th SMART Africa MRI Workshop at the UCT Neuroscience Auditorium & Atrium, University of Cape Town. The focus remains simple: making MRI more equitable across Africa.

Join us in Cape Town as we come together to build that shift. For further information, please contact: info.smarta.network@gm
