32 years ago today, I returned to the University of Ghana after my PhD at the University of Cambridge — choosing Ghana over a postdoc at Cornell University. By God’s grace, together we have: • Trained 133 PhDs • Released 413 improved varieties • Reached 3M+ farmers in 14 countries • Mobilized $160M+ in grants The West Africa Centre for Crop Improvement remains strong. To God be the Glory.

Spotlight @acquah_maamekua, my PhD student, for winning the prestigious @FondationLOreal Women Science Young Talent Award. Congratulations, very well deserved.
WACCBIP@WACCBIP_UG

Congratulations to WACCBIP PhD student ,Maame Ekua Acquah @acquah_maamekua, on winning the @FondationLOreal For Women in Science Young Talent Award. Maame’s award-winning research, conducted at WACCBIP, explores how ACE2, the receptor used by viruses such as SARS-CoV-2 to enter human cells, may influence who becomes severely ill during infection. Her work investigates whether differences in how this viral entry point behaves across individuals can help predict vulnerability long before an outbreak occurs. Her findings could reshape how countries prepare for fast-spreading viral threats and strengthen global pandemic readiness. Congratulations once again to Maame Ekua Acquah on this outstanding achievement.

#TakeTheLead #PowerToolChampion Sometimes life has the most beautiful way of reminding us that your work matters, even when we can't see the full picture. This recognition isn't just about me - it is about the communities I have served and serve, and most importantly the remarkable mentors and mentees in my life and all the women who came before us to make moments like these possible #TheGiants #PaceSetters Firstly, I dedicate this award to the #Matriarchs in my life: my dearest Queen Mother who is my number one cheerleader and role model and my sweetheart maternal grandmother the late Dani (without whom I would not have been able to complete my high school studies, a story to share for next time! May God rest Dani's soul in eternal peace, my guardian angel 🙏), the iron ladies who raised me in Kenya, Africa and helped instill in me the virtues and values I possess today. Because of them, I am. I also extend my dedication to all the remarkable teachers and mentors God has blessed me with in all the different chapters of my life journey thus far, my team at the Pamoja Kenya Mentorship Alliance, and all our mentees through the years. Thank you all for being a part of my journey and for all the ways you have supported me and @PMentorship P.A.K.E.M.A vision: "We envision empowered, enlightened, productive, peaceful and well-rounded next generation of youths, who are critical thinkers, leaders and builders of our nations who will help eradicate slums, poverty and social-economical injustices through strong powers of faith, networking, innovation, critical thinking, entrepreneurship and mentorship alliances." You are all the giants on whose shoulders I stand. "I come as one but I stand as ten thousands." Dr. Maya Angelou This August, I get to receive this award alongside other incredible women leaders at the Power Up Conference in Washington D.C. USA. An amazing celebration of women who refuse to shrink and are creating positive change in their communities and industries. #ChangeAgents If you know someone who would benefit from being surrounded by hundreds of powerful women leaders, I'd love for them to join us at this conference. There is something wonderful that happens when we gather together with intention. #PowerToLead #IntentionalLeadership Who in your network needs to hear about this amazing leadership course and conference? Tag them below ⬇️ What's a moment when life surprised you with recognition when you least expected it? I'd love to hear your stories in the comments ⬇️ #ChangeMakers #WomenInScience #Leadership #PowerTools #Empowerment #TakeTheLead #BreakingBarriers #BuildingFutureLeaders #MakingChangeHappen #TheBoldMove #BeInspired #GodBless #ToGodBeTheGlory @GlobalHealthOrg @WomensHealthMag @UN_Women @WomenAfrica @GloriaFeldt1 @takeleadwomen @WomenintheWorld @MGHWIGH @StemSistersau @GirlUp @volunteerBGCDC @GirlsWhoCode @wonderofscience @EstherPassaris @4womeninscience @WomenInScience_ @owsd_sanc @WomenInSTEMAu @WomenInTheArts @AAUW @AAUWGloriaB @aauwpa @AauwMaryland @AWISNational @harambeans @ZawadiAfrica @ThomasMoreKY @JohnsHopkinsSPH @uonbi @KenyattaUni @Maseno_Uni @BinaMaseno @JBayNishi @McD_beatmalaria

#Gratitude #Kenya 🇰🇪 #Africa your daughter made you proud #OurDreamsAreValid #GloryBeToGod I have some incredibly exciting news to share with you all 🏆 I've been selected as a 2025 Take The Lead Power Tool Champion! 🎉 Out of all the amazing women nominated, I was chosen as the Power Tool #2 - The Trailblazer winner. #GratefulSoul I'm still processing this honor. I come from very humble beginnings and mine is a story of purpose driven life, #DaringToDream, never giving up hope, the power of faith, genuine constructive mentoring, and above all else putting God first in everything. I was born and raised in Kenya, East Africa. My childhood was in both the slums of Nairobi and remote rural areas of Siaya County in Kisumu where while growing up I experienced first-hand stringent poverty, struggled with my education pursuance due to financial constraints, and domestic issues at a very young age. My passion for science and medical research began in high school at St. Gabriel’s Gagra Mixed Day Secondary School situated in remote rural Siaya County, Kisumu, Kenya. While in high school, there were so many challenges that all the students were succumbed to such as: lack of enough educational necessities, lack of school fees, lack of electricity and at night we studied using the kerosene lanterns, candles and sometimes using the moonlight. However, the girls were at a greater disadvantage when it came to education pursuance because of the norms that had been imposed by so many cultures. These practices somehow affected the girl-child educational progress and prowess and some either just came to school for the sake of it and others lost hope especially in STEM courses completely. As one of the top performing students, I was also actively involved in leadership and empowerment as a school prefect, tutor and a mentor to my fellow students in high school. I actively advocated for collaborative learning agenda and together with the other top performing students, we therefore helped form study group sessions for students who were willing to join them. These sessions, including the science club that I helped lead, were great cocoons for all the students at school and were aimed at tutoring the math and science courses. Continuous excellence earned me index one position during the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination and as the first girl to ever attain highest university entry points from Gagra Secondary School at the time. Girl-child’s excellence in academics and leadership had been deemed somewhat impossible in my society but I was able against all odds to accomplish all these therefore enlightening my society. Currently, not only the number of girls at my former high school increasing but most importantly the girls are continuously shining in academics and leadership performances. This brings so much joy to my heart, makes me extremely motivated and very inspired to continue getting involved in empowerment journeys through various platforms #MentoringTheNextGeneration @PMentorship I recently became the first PhD generation in our family and entire clan; it's been quite a journey and the rest is history! God's amazing grace is sufficient 🙏 #GratefulSoul #WomenInScience #BreakingBarriers #MyStory 👩‍🔬🇰🇪🌍 @Griffith_Uni @JohnsHopkinsSPH @ORISEconnect @MayoClinic @ThomasMoreKY @ZawadiAfrica I never imagined my life journey and work would lead to recognition like this! This is a testament to the saying that never let your impoverished background define your future. Coming from an impoverished background is a catalyst for resilience, determination, and a driving force to overcome adversity, achieve your goals and make a difference. #gritandgrace This award celebrates the work I'm most passionate about - giving back to #humanity through #science, innovation, leadership, mentorship, policy, advocacy, education, #empowerment @UN_Women @citizentvkenya @ntvkenya @beatmalaria @ASTMH @takeleadwomen @StateHouseKenya

In her presentation, @acquah_maamekua introduced a novel dual bacterial–insect cell surface display system to study ACE2–SARS-CoV-2 spike interactions across multiple variants. Her model mimics host-virus binding dynamics and enables real-time analysis of receptor engagement, immune evasion, and infectivity. Using this system, she uncovers variant-specific differences in binding strength and immune escape potential underscoring its a promise as a tool for pandemic preparedness and immunological research. #WACCBIPResearch #Virology #COVID19 #Immunology #PandemicPreparedness
