In an effort to improve our impact and position as a leader in health research and to address inconsistencies with the way our name and logo are used, we have revised our name to MRC Unit The Gambia (without a comma), which should be used in the first instance. We can also be referred to as The Unit or MRCG.
Our tagline has evolved to better represent the work of MRCG in West Africa as it encompasses all areas of our scientific research in this region.
Our new tagline is: Leading health research in West Africa to save lives and improve health across the world.
These changes are effective immediately and will be rolled out over the next few months.
