Joseph Ulasi

Dale and Mary Harpstead Endowment for Graduate Support in Food Crop Production award this fall. This generous $1,000 award is instrumental in advancing my PhD research in potato breeding. Joseph-ifeanyi-ulasi-1200.jpg
As a graduate support award, it has directly funded essential resources that directly advance my bioinformatics proficiency. Specifically, it funded a subscription to bioinformatics software for genomic analysis, the acquisition of a larger PC monitor to improve data visualization and workflow efficiency, and a key technical textbook. These tools are providing a vital foundation for the data-driven aspects of my work, enabling impactful research outcomes.
Thank you again for this recognition and for the opportunity to be featured in the Weekly Beet. I am very grateful for the department's continued investment in my academic development.
