Abstract
Proficiency in English is essential in scientific disciplines; however, it is unevenly distributed globally, creating barriers for those with limited training. Research in neuroscience supports the benefits of teaching in a student's native language. Consequently, pharmacometrics, a complex and growing field, stands to gain significantly from overcoming language barriers to better train future scientists. One effective strategy is to offer pharmacometrics education in various languages, particularly in regions with low English proficiency, such as French-speaking African countries. Recently, two French-led pharmacometrics training programs were conducted in Africa, demonstrating the positive impact of such initiatives. These programs are adaptable to other countries and languages, and ultimately, they could contribute to global health improvements by making pharmacometrics education more accessible worldwide.
