Habte-Michael Habtetzion, our Eritrean scientist completing his Ph.d  in Aquaculture at the world famous Nanjing Agricultural University in  China has continued to gain recognition as an outstanding student as
well as piling up contributions to prominent scientific journals.

Articles detailing the advanced experiments in fish nutrition that  Habtet has been leading (several Chinese scientists work under Habtets leadership in each project) have been published in the journal Aquaculture and the British Journal of Nutrition and Aquaculture.

Habtet has also been recommended by his University for a National Award entitled "Recommendation of 2015 Distinguished Foreign Students Scholarship Candidates". Nanjing Agricultural University - College of
