KUALA LUMPUR: A woman researcher from the Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) bagged the Outstanding Woman Researcher award by Venus International Foundation in Chennai India, last March.

Dr V. Jeyanny, a senior research officer specialising in the field of soil sciences with 19 years of experience, was one of the 33 researchers selected to receive the award from 974 nominees.

"I have been actively studying soil sciences since 2003 and my research covers soil conservation, rehabilitation, soil and plant chemistry, as well as the role of soils in climate change. I am also the current vice-president of the Malaysian Society of Soil Science. Jeyanny shared that she was also given the chance to deliver a keynote address during the award ceremony, in which she spoke on the challenges she faced as a woman scientist and how she overcame it.

Jeyanny shared that the FRIM studies are increasingly important for the conservation of soil resources as rapid development, increasing population and food demands pose a threat to our fragile ecosystems.
