25 Year celebrations
The Protein Research Foundation's 25 Year celebrations were held during 2015 in Gauteng at Fire & Ice and in the Western Cape at Spier. Mr Gerhard Scholtemeijer, chairman of the PRF, gave an overview of the PRF's activities, progress and successes over the past 25 years during his opening address. Although the origins of the PRF can be traced back as far as 1973, very little is documented of the period between 1973 and 1990.

We are sincerely grateful to EEAOC for the exposure that they have afforded several PRF Contractors and ARC Scientists in Argentina and the further exposure to which we have already agreed in principle.
