As 2025 comes to a close, I thank IITA staff, partners, donors, and the communities we serve across Africa. This year reaffirmed the power of science, innovation, and partnership. Together, we strengthened IITA’s role as a trusted partner for African governments and global development institutions. Looking ahead to 2026 with optimism and ambition—to scale impact and strengthen Africa’s food systems. Season’s greetings to you and your loved ones. #Agriculture #FoodSystems #Africa #ScienceWithPurpose

#JMMMReflections Today, I find myself reflecting on the curious juxtaposition of immense power coupled with profound ignorance in scientific realms. While viral claims may clamor for attention, it is the subtle whisper of evidence that truly persuades and enlightens. Regarding the relationship between paracetamol and pregnancy, notable studies have shed light on the matter: - A JAMA study encompassing 2.4 million births found no causal link with autism. - Both the WHO and ACOG affirm its safety when appropriately indicated. - The debunked association between vaccines and autism underscores the dangers of misinformation. It is crucial to recognize that misinformation not only undermines trust but also poses significant risks to public health. Upholding the integrity of scientific knowledge is a collective responsibility. Let us prioritize sharing factual information over unfounded rumors. Together, let's focus on promoting the good, striving for a better world guided by purposeful science. Remember, evidence holds paramount importance in shaping our understanding and decisions. 🌱 #FocusOnTheGood #ABetterWorld #ScienceWithPurpose #EvidenceMatters

So proud of my PhD student for achieving 1st Place – Best Discussed Poster at the Brazilian Society of Cardiology Congress (the largest in Latin America)! 🏆✨ Her study on dipyrone use during pregnancy and ductus arteriosus constriction shows the power of science driven by passion and purpose. #Cardiology #HeartFailure #Research #ScienceWithPurpose @UFPEoficial @ufcaoficial @sbcardiologia

Honored to meet President Sergio Mattarella, President of the Italian Republic, alongside @niaforg. Moments like this remind me why I chose #science to serve people, build bridges, and fight for a more equitable #healthcare system. #ItalyUSA #ScienceWithPurpose #SHRO #NIAF

Science has a broader duty 📢 👥 Train your team in ethics & welfare 🌍 Talk to the public about your work 🏛️ Push for better welfare policies Responsibility builds trust. #aRukon #AnimalResearch #3Rs #ScienceWithPurpose

Huge thanks to everyone who came, asked questions, shared ideas, and connected with us. 💙 It was a pleasure to talk about science with purpose, in the best setting possible. 📢And we're just getting started! #Pint25MAD #Pint25ES #sciencewithpurpose @somosupm

‼️ #TOGETHER, She Changed Everything: Martine Piccart’s Fight Against #BreastCancer What does true #impact in #oncology look like? 💬 “For an #oncologist, impact is simple,” says Prof. Martine Piccart. “You either prolong life, or you improve its quality. That’s it. That’s the line.” In this powerful article, Prof. Piccart reflects on a career defined not by #purpose. From building the Breast International Group (BIG) to fighting for patient-first clinical trials like #HERA and #MINDACT, her #leadership redefined what #collaboration in #science can achieve. She speaks candidly about the hardest decisions—turning away profit-driven groups to protect academic integrity, managing egos to preserve team culture, and mentoring the next generation to put mission over metrics.

Today we honor the legacy of Dr. Convit, eleven years after his passing. His vision and commitment remain alive in every step we take at JCWO. We continue to uphold his vision by expanding access to innovative programs for vulnerable communities. #ScienceWithPurpose #JCWO

Professor Kevin Greenman says it best: “Every step forward in understanding the universe is a step closer to the Creator.” In a lab or in prayer, we’re after the same thing: truth. Whether it's exploring quantum physics or decoding DNA, we believe true science, honestly pursued, points us to something greater. Faith and reason aren't in conflict. They're co-pilots in humanity’s journey towards meaning. #CatholicTech #FaithMeetsScience #STEMandSoul #TruthThroughReason #ScienceWithPurpose

A bold leap into the future! Assam takes a historic stride with the visionary #ASSAMSAT mission—an ambitious initiative aimed at leveraging space technology to drive development, governance, and innovation across the state. In a significant meeting, Hon’ble CM Dr. @himantabiswa Ji and ISRO Chairman Shri V. Narayanan laid the groundwork for this transformative project, which will revolutionise flood management, border security, agriculture, disaster response, and policy planning through real-time satellite data. With technical support from @isro and @INSPACeIND, ASSAMSAT will redefine public service delivery and empower our institutions with precision and transparency. A standout feature—direct involvement of college students in satellite design—underscores Assam’s commitment to nurturing scientific curiosity and building a future-ready generation. Assam is not just dreaming big—it’s launching big! #ASSAMSAT #SpaceForProgress #ScienceWithPurpose #NewAssamRising #ISRO #INSPACe #HimantaBiswaSarma #InnovationForAll

😊Deeply grateful to have participated in the Lp(a) Global Summit – International Task Force, held in Brussels on March 24–25, 2025. 👉Representing Latin America in this distinguished gathering of global experts has been both an honor and a scientific duty. ☝️Lipoprotein(a) is no longer an emerging biomarker — it’s a central player in residual cardiovascular risk. At the Summit, we aligned on strategies to improve awareness, testing, and access to upcoming therapies for elevated Lp(a), a condition that affects millions worldwide — silently, often undetected, yet with clear clinical consequences. 👉In my presentation, I shared the challenges and opportunities we face in LATAM, where disparities in healthcare access make early detection and intervention both more complex and more urgent. 🤩It was inspiring to witness the passion, knowledge, and shared purpose of everyone in the room. Science only moves forward when it’s collaborative, patient-centered, and globally inclusive. This meeting was all of that — and more. 🙌The work continues. #LpaGlobalSummit #LipoproteinA #CardiovascularRisk #LATAM #ScienceWithPurpose @fhpatienteurope

As we continue to honor #RareDiseaseDay, we’re shining a light on the incredible people behind the science — dedicated to relentlessly pursuing innovation for patients’ most profound health needs. #InnovatingForRareDiseases #ScienceWithPurpose
