Tim was co founder and trustee of the charity Young Scientists for Africa (YoSA) (Registered Charity: 1176619). YoSA provides a scholarship scheme for young African scientists to attend the London International Youth Science Forum (LIYSF), focusing on individuals for whom other financial support is not available. Each year these African scholars join 500 of the best science students from across the globe for a two week summer school, learning from world-leading scientists through lectures, debates and visits. The forum provides YoSA scholars with life-changing knowledge and contacts which will empower their science careers and help address the critical shortage of scientists in Africa. YoSA is also developing a network of student science communities to help support the next generation of African scientists. More information on YoSA can be found at www.yosa.org.uk. If you would like to help this charity which was so close to Tim's heart please make a donation. Our plan is to use the funds raised to start a scholarship scheme in his name.
