The future of science is built through people, collaboration, and a shared purpose 🌎. At CIP, we are proud to bring together researchers and emerging leaders from around the world, creating opportunities to learn from one another and build collaborations that drive meaningful impact. It has been a privilege to have Zhenxin Zhang from CIP China, Michael, an intern from the World Food Prize, and Dr. Amanpreet Kaur from the James Hutton Institute as part of this journey. Different backgrounds. Different perspectives. One shared mission: advancing science to improve lives through research, innovation, and global partnerships. #foodsystems #foodsecurity #nutritionsecurity

Potatoes 🥔 do more than feed people. In Kenya, they strengthen food security, create jobs, and support businesses across the entire value chain from farmers and traders to processors and food vendors.   One crop. Countless opportunities 🎉. #potato #potatocrops #foodsystems #foodsecurity #valuechain

Sometimes, one opportunity can change the way you see your future 🎉. Meet Michael, a Borlaug-Ruan International Intern with the World Food Prize Foundation, who spent his internship at CIP exploring how science can improve nutrition and strengthen food systems 🌎. From the Quality and Nutrition Laboratory 🧪 to new perspectives on his career, Michael’s experience was more than a learning opportunity. It was a first step toward making a difference. #foodsystems #biofortifiedpotatoes #youngscientists
