Kenya 2015
Susan Njuguini Kabacia Mwai has been drawn to science since she was a little girl in primary school in Kenya’s Rift Valley. “I loved science, especially biology, and I always performed well in the exams,” she says. When time came to choose a course after secondary school, she naturally took up applied biology, earning a diploma at the Nairobi Technical Institute.
I know the AWARD Fellowship will help me be more effective in research and delivery of services, and more focused in achieving my institutional and personal goals.
Field of Research
I realized there are useful fungi growing in the natural ecosystem. I am therefore focusing on using this resource to benefit smallholder farmers.
