Prof Anne Muigai

Fantastic presentation on Diversification of Alpine Flora by @paulSamuel at the inaugural African Plant Genomics Symposium at @ExperienceUSIU. @DrPChronicles #plantgenomicsafrica #africanplantgenomics

Thank you so much! Helping build @DAISEA_AfricaBP Pilot was hands down the hardest but also the most fulfilling thing I have done in my career so far. I am beyond proud of everyone involved and still amazed we managed to pull this off. Can’t wait for the day we meet in person!

In 2023 I was commissioned by @wellcometrust as an Independent Contractor for its Discovery Research Genomics Beyond the Sequence scoping work that aims to embed ethical, legal, & social contexts in genomics. The report, with other contributors, is now published by @wellcometrust

We’re honoured to welcome Prof. Deogratius Jaganyi, VC, @MountKenyaUni as Guest of Honour at the 3rd @eaafricabp (Aug 4–8, 2025). A proud moment for our partnership with MKU & DAISEA AfricaBP! Here's to impactful collaboration ahead! #DAISEAAfricaBP #MountKenyaUniversity

Prof @HellerRasmus, an African Wildlife Genomics specialist, passionate about capacity building of young scientists, will be making a presentation as well as conducting a 3-day hands-on practical session on population genetics during the @DAISEA_AfricaBP workshop @eaafricabp

A new partnership with Prof @HewanDD and @HawassaUniv is on the pipeline. Thank you for your support! @DAISEA_AfricaBP @MountKenyaUni @eaafricabp

We are excited to announce the participation of Prof @adeyfeleke at the forthcoming East & Central African Regional Workshop, which will be held at @MountKenyaUni ,4th-5th August 2025! Prof, we value your support ! @eaafricabp @KujaJosiah @DAISEA_AfricaBP

Panel discussion: Positioning Africa for leadership on genomics of African plants. @Striga_Steve (second from left) and @AnneMuigai_Prof (first from right) taking part in discussion. #AfricanPlantGenomics

Thank you for the invitation to talk about @DAISEA_AfricaBP at the Inaugural African Plant Genomics Symposium

@AnneMuigai_Prof talks about the @DAISEA_AfricaBP . Key takeaway for me: improve quality and quantity of science in Africa. #plantgenomicsafrica #africanplantgenomics @ThankGod_Ebenez

There are times when I feel that advocating for better global genomics could be seen as something strange, sacrilegious, & abominable to talk about & oppose. However, faith, objectivity, confidence, courage, consistency, & hope for the future, has kept me going.

A delegation from NLDA, led by Prof. Rietjens, visited @NDUKenya at its main campus in Lanet, Nakuru. The delegation was received by the DVC for Research, Innovation, and Security Studies, Maj Gen W Shume, on behalf of the VC, Lt Gen J Mutai. See more shorturl.at/14Jal

NDU-K hosted Mr. Ruben Brekelmans, Netherlands Defence Minister & his delegation at its main campus, for the official signing of a Letter of Intent focused on enhancing collaboration between NDU-K and the Netherlands Defence Academy. See more ndu.ac.ke/netherlands-de…

In June, I shall give keynote speech to African scholars at University of Cambridge @Cambridge_Uni on the topic 'Africa in the age of digital innovations: the rise of big data in biodiversity'. Amongst many insights, I shall talk about African BioGenome Project @DAISEA_AfricaBP

Great to see you and @ThankGod_Ebenez together! @DAISEA_AfricaBP is eternally grateful for the hard work you put into setting up the Pilot Committee. The strong foundation you laid was instrumental in getting is started! I hope I meet you soon too!! @MajewskaR #biodiversity

After years of working together on @DAISEA_AfricaBP, I finally met @ThankGod_Ebenez in person🎉🎉 at ‘2050 Genomics’ workshop @sangerinstitute where the world's top genomics minds mapped out ways to save life on Earth. Just waiting on the world to listen before it’s too late🤞🤞

An Africa-led genomics project is not one where the Principal Investigator has a primary African affiliation. Rather, it is one where the full cycle of research is performed 100% on African soil, including its governance.
