OWSD has provided tremendous support in shaping my career as a researcher, science ambassador, role model for women scientists and a "think high" human being.

All this has broadened my knowledge for this domain of science, gave me an open mind and also allowed me to learn many things.

The OWSD award helped me not only to become the researcher I am today, but also to become a leader in research.

" I can boldly declare that OWSD rewarded my brilliance thus giving me recognition and confidence in my professional arena and placed me in national and international scientific communities.”

"I owe ‘what’, ‘who’ and ‘where’ I am in my career and professional practice today to OWSD because without the PHD Fellowship, all my achievements today would have been nothing but bleak"

The long-awaited dream
