My research focuses on the algal flora of the Albertine Rift Lakes, particularly investigating the dietary overlap of herbivorous fishes through stomach content analyses and diatom taxonomy. I hold a Master\u2019s in Biology from Mohammed V University and a Bachelor\u2019s in Biology from the Official University of Bukavu. I am a recipient of the BILA GlobalMinds Scholarship for my PhD and I am an alumnus of CEBioS. I have contributed to numerous research projects and attended international workshops on climate change, taxonomy, and scientific leadership. I am also a member of African Women in Science (Cohort 2023), a project founded by ACARE. Fluent in Swahili, French, and English, I am passionate about biodiversity conservation, enjoy traveling, and I am an avid music lover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/elys%C3%A9e-nzigire-rutakaza-0204671a4\/\"><strong>LinkedIn<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Elysee-Rutakaza-2?ev=hdr_xprf\"><strong>ResearchGate<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-1849-5626\">ORCID<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a Congolese researcher (Centre de Recherche en Hydrobiologie \/Uvira-South Kivu) currently pursuing a PhD in Biology at Mohammed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":46,"featured_media":0,"parent":21,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"coauthors":[8],"class_list":["post-1526","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1526"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1526\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1572,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1526\/revisions\/1572"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.nord.no\/chipolata\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
