Dr. Nasser Kasozi Addresses GRÓ FTP Fellows and Fisheries Scientists During Visit to Iceland | GRÓ FTP share.google/DGvpSOpub1gkeK…

My visit to Iceland concluded with a talk delivered to students of the 2025–2026 cohort participating in the six-month training @gro_ftp. The two lectures focused on Africa’s aquaculture landscape and the role of NARO in catalysing transformative aquaculture research in Uganda.

It was a privilege to serve as a PhD opponent for Dr. Safina Musa during her doctoral defense at @uni_iceland. Congratulations to the candidate and her supervisory team for a dissertation that was exceptionally well structured and scientifically rigorous. @narouganda

Earlier today, @NaroBugizardi hosted @narouganda PARI Directors at its satellite station in Ikulwe, where different technologies and demonstrations were highlighted. @Rwebitaba, @BulindiZ, @nafirri,@NARO_NaCRRI

Prof. Pauline Byakika-Kibwika to PhD students: “Complete your PhD on time; your questions are relevant now, not 10 years from now. Science moves fast, and policy changes. Treatments evolve. Delay can make your work obsolete. Completing early allows your findings to influence policy, innovation, and development sooner.” #20thARDC
