Prof. Zerihun Tadele is a group leader in Crop Breeding and Genomics at the Institute of Plant Sciences at the University of Bern. He has a long history as a scientist at UniBE, 21 years! He is currently working on a HORIZON project called “Booster” involving 12 countries —among which is his country of origin, Ethiopia. It aims to improve drought tolerance in both maize and teff, while simultaneously exploring the potential for transferring species-specific drought responsive features. With this project, they are connecting Africa and Europe. For him, Initiative Afrique brings assets not only to Africans but also to friends of Africa! His advice to new African students arriving in Bern is to adapt to the working conditions and be open to integrating oneself in a team.
Members of the Initiative Afrique community at the University of Bern (Switzerland) introduce themselves in a series of podcasts.
