A group of seven young South African scientists will soon start spending time at China's leading technology institutions, conducting research with Chinese scientists for 6 to 12 months. The seven scientists benefited from the South Africa-China Young Scientist Exchange Program signed by the two countries in 2017 to give young researchers from both countries an opportunity to share knowledge and develop skills.
