Welcome to WiNS Kenya
Rooted in Kenya. Connected to Africa. Building the Future of Neuroscience.
A community of researchers, students, and technologists advancing neuroscience and building an inclusive brain research ecosystem in Kenya.
Advanced Research
Our Foundation
Neuroscience Is Where We Start
Everything traces back to the brain. Four focus pillars grow from that foundation — each shaped by the realities of Kenya and the wider African context.
Neuroscience
Understanding the brain — how it works, who studies it, and who it's built for — is our starting point, not an afterthought.
Neuropsychiatry
Understanding the brain basis of mental health conditions and advancing culturally relevant research and care across Kenya and Africa.
Brain & Developmental Disorders
Studying neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions, with a focus on early detection, access to care, and the Kenyan context.
Assistive Technology
Designing and evaluating technologies that support people living with brain-related conditions — built with, not just for, the communities who use them.
Computational Neuroscience
Using data, modelling, and machine learning to understand the brain, and building local capacity so African datasets and researchers shape the field.
Featured Projects
Breakthrough initiatives pushing the boundaries of what's possible
Our project pipeline is brewing
We're rebuilding this space to properly showcase the research and prototypes in motion across Neuropsychiatry, Brain & Developmental Disorders, Assistive Technology, and Computational Neuroscience.
Let's Create Impact Together
We're open to partnerships, collaborations, and conversations about advancing brain research, mental health, and inclusive innovation in Kenya and across Africa.
