Join us today as we speak to an inspirational Woman in STEM, Sethlina Naa Dodua Aryee, raised in Ghana, who moved to the University of Cambridge to complete her PhD in sustainable food production through the use of genomic and bioinformatic tools - a global issue that she has been passionate about for her whole life. Sethlina speaks to us today about her research into the genomics of the indigenous Ashanti Dwarf pig, following cross-breeding of the indigenous species with some overseas species, as well as the differences between studying in Ghana and the UK. The indigenous Ashanti dwarf pig is hugely disease-resistant, so it is of great importance to harness this trait for sustainable food security.
