あらすじ・解説
Dr. Catherine Ngila, Africa's leading expert on water technology, is on a mission to make clean drinking water a reality for people in Africa, particularly those in rural areas, but accomplishing that goal will require more than just her scientific skills and prowess. In the meantime, she is also devoting her energy to helping African girls and women become leaders in science and technology.
The Kenyan-born scientist is the head of the Chemical Sciences Department at the University of Johannesburg. Her work focuses on applying nanotechnology for water purification.
Dr. Ngila is passionate about water research. Why? Because “Water is life! Nanotechnology can play a vital role in water purification techniques. My dream is to produce a commercially viable water nano-filter that removes contaminants in one filtration cycle, enabling rural African families to install affordable water filters in their homes.”
