Alex Ikeme, a professor in the Department of Food Science and Technology, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, has called for interdisciplinary research in the fight against COVID-19 pandemic.
Mr Ikeme made the call at a two-day International Conference of Faculty of Biosciences, Nnamdi Azikiwe University (NAU), Awka, on Wednesday with the theme: “Post COVID-19 Resilience: Role of Biosciences”.
He said that lack of interdisciplinary studies also contributed to the slow response in stemming the tide of COVID-19 in the country.
