What we do
The X-TechLab ecosystem
We are fully committed to elevating our clients to new heights.
X-TechLab aims to provide hands-on training in X-ray techniques, processing and analysis of experimental data, in order to provide African scientists with the means to develop solutions for the sustainable development of the continent.
X-TechLab is the first X-ray laboratory devoted to the community. The researcher has the opportunity to work with a team.
Scientists, industrialists, farmers, architects, physicians, pharmacists, students and entrepreneurs are all actors with whom X-TechLab will work to solve specific critical socioeconomics issues.
X-TechLab aims to contribute to the emergence of a community of experts of x-rays experts who will, not only be active users of the future African synchrotron, but also be instrumental in defining its strategy and scientific priorities.
