Lighton Phiri gave a talk at the 2023 DRGS Research Seed Grant symposium that was held in Lusaka, Zambia between December 11–12, 2023.
The talk, titled "Enterprise Medical Imaging for Streamlined Radiological Diagnosis in Zambian Public Health Facilities", is linked to the 2021 DRGS Seed Grant awarded to execute the "Enterprise Medical Imaging in Zambia Project". The research project was amongst the 12 successful applicantions that were awarded "Seed Money" grants, amounting to ZMW 25,000.00, by DRGS in 2021. The talk highlighted key findings from the project and, additionally, ongoing work linked to the project.
The Directorate of Research and Graduate Studies (DRGS) at the University of Zambia held and hosted the Seed Grant Symposium between December 11-12, 2023. The symposium provides an avenue for researchers who benefited from DDRGS Seed Grants to present findings from studies conducted.
