++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Four PhD candidates at Addis Ababa Science and Technology University have recently defended their dissertations, making significant contributions to biotechnology, software engineering, and chemical engineering. Ashebir Gogile from the Department of Biotechnology conducted his PhD research on "Identification and Characterization of Viruses Infecting Yam (Dioscorea spp.) and Development of Protocols for the Production of Virus-Free Elite Varieties in Ethiopia." His work, supervised by Prof. Adane Abraham and Dr. Misrak Kebede, focuses on improving yam cultivation by identifying viral infections and establishing protocols for producing healthy, high-quality yam varieties. Similarly, Mereme Abedi from the same department successfully defended her dissertation on "Molecular Characterization of Major Sugarcane Viruses and Their Vectors and Development of Protocols for the Production of Virus-Free Elite Varieties." Her research, also supervised by Prof. Adane Abraham and Dr. Misrak Kebede, aims to enhance sugarcane production by mitigating the impact of viral infections.
In the field of software engineering, Erena Siyoum defended his PhD titled "Brain Tumor Segmentation Using Enhanced Region Growing Algorithm," supervised by Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Schwenker and Dr. Taye Girma. His research contributes to medical imaging by developing advanced algorithms for accurately identifying brain tumors. On the other hand, in the Department of Chemical Engineering (Food Process Engineering), Eden Genetu successfully defended her PhD thesis on "Characterization of Ethiopian Neglected Tuber (Amorphophallus abyssinicus); Isolation and Modifications of Its Starch and Development of Functional Bread." Under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Eng. Shimelis Admasu and Dr. Habtamu Admasu (Associate Professor), her work focuses on utilizing underexploited local crops to develop nutritious food products, enhancing food security and innovation in food processing.
Please join us in congratulating Ashebir Gogile, Mereme Abedi, Erena Siyoum, and Eden Genetu on their successful PhD defenses!
