Bridging past with progress: My mission in the world of polymers.

ABSTRACT

Akorfa Dagadu is a winner of the fourth annual Rising Black Scientists Awards for a scholar in the physical, data, earth, and environmental sciences. We asked emerging Black scientists to tell us about their scientific vision and goals, experiences that sparked their interest in science, how they want to contribute to a more inclusive scientific community, and how these all fit together on their journey. This is her story.
