HEPA Plus funds KNUST's herbal medicine research
HEPA Plus has provided US$3,000 to the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) to support research into herbal medicine. This investment will serve as seed funding for the HEPA Plus Awards Scheme, which focuses on research and innovation in herbal medicine. The initiative was launched in partnership with the Department of Herbal Medicine, KNUST, and Ebenage Herbal Production and Consult. The scheme was launched as part of activities marking the 25th anniversary of KNUST's Department of Herbal Medicine.
Dr Ebenezer Agyemang, Founder of HEPA Plus, stated that "Our universities produce brilliant research every year, yet many promising ideas never move beyond the classroom because young researchers often lack mentorship, funding and industry support. Today, we are taking a step to change that." He added that the awards scheme seeks to promote safe, effective and high-quality herbal medicine through scientific research, while supporting young researchers. The US$3,000 seed capital was provided by HEPA Plus and its flagship brands, Pavi and Plasmox.
