I am the joint recipient, with professor Lizette Koekemoer from the Wits Research Institute in Malaria, of the 2024 Vice Chancellor’s Research Award, the University of the Witwatersrand’s highest research accolade. The purpose of the award, which we were presented at the annual Council/Senate dinner on 23 October 2024, is “to acknowledge the achievements of an exceptional Wits scholar who has demonstrated high levels of research excellence over a sustained period”.
