An alumna of XUAN’s LAB breaks into the top 100 Asian Scientists – 2020

We are proud to announce that, our senior, Dr. PHAM Thi Thu Ha has been ranked 87th in the top 100 outstanding scientists of the year by Singapore’s Asian Scientist Magazine.

Dr. Ha is currently working at Ton Duc Thang University, Vietnam. She received the L’Oréal-UNESCO for Women in Science National Fellowship for using molecular markers to develop high-yielding salt-tolerant rice varieties in affected areas along the Mekong Delta.

Dr. Ha completed the Ph.D. course at the Laboratory of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, IDEC, Hiroshima University with many remarkable achievements. Her enthusiasm and passion for research always inspire younger generations of our LAB.

Let’s congratulate Dr. Ha on her success.
Wish Dr. Ha would achieve more and more great honors in the future.
