" Through the Millennium Fellowship, I wish to contribute to research and innovation for a better community engagement. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Pharmaceutical innovations: Herbal remedies

The project is about nurturing the spirit of innovation at our University by providing skills and opportunities to all students on how to identify herbal drugs from nature, extracting crude drugs safely and making dosage forms from there. We aim at making herbal remedies backed up by research for our community that will solve present and future health problems. We believe that an early exposure to such skills in research, pharmacognosy and pharmaceutics will encourage future innovators to come up and give solutions to problems like Antimicrobial resistance among others. We also aim at making awareness of the importance of plant life especially to our health therefore encouraging everyone to protect and not to over use these trees as some are now getting endangered or extinct.
