Ten FABI postgraduate students representing South Africa, China, Vietnam, Colombia, Cameroon, Malaysia and Nigeria participated in the #ScienceIsGlobal Twitter media campaign created by The Royal Society in partnership with national academies across the UK and Europe. The main objective is to highlight the importance of international science research and cross border collaborations. 

International cooperation programs are of great importance for the establishment of networking across the globe. FABI prides itself in having partnerships that reach out across the globe and is a truly multi-cultural, international microcosm with staff and students from 31 countries from all seven continents across the globe working in 12 research groups.
