Medics approve Biotech milestone in the country

Medics have exuded confidence in research, innovation and outreach efforts undertaken by the Kenya University Biotechnology Consortium (KUBICO) to address critical global challenges facing farmers towards mitigating the vagaries of global warming in the agricultural sector. Professor Lukoye Atwoli from the Aga Khan University (AKU) said they have been running programmes and supporting research initiatives and collaboration with partners such as the Biotechnology consortium, which is doing admirable work in research focused on food security through biotechnology. “KMA has demonstrated that addressing climate change is not just about advocacy it is about action”, he said adding that the approach goes along a programme where the government is putting up a global transformation agenda by prioritising public health, resilience, and sustainability.
