The 14th issue of Curiosity, Wits University’s research magazine, is themed: #Wits100. In this special issue to mark Wits University’s centenary year, we look back over a 100 years during which our researchers have undoubtedly changed the world for good. We also look to the next 100 years and to a new generation of early career researchers in Africa who are taking on a myriad of complex planetary problems, including global change and inequality, erratic energy supply, the lack of governance and ethics, the threat of communicable and non-communicable diseases and pandemics, and the yet unknown challenges in the new century.
Produced by Wits Communications, Curios.ty is a print and digital magazine that tells the stories of pioneering research through the voices of the talented researchers, students and academics at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa.
