The guest speaker at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) Ghana's 14th graduation ceremony, Dr Perpetual Andam Boiquaye, has challenged the institution's record graduating class to view their degrees not as the end of their academic journey but as the beginning of solving Africa's most complex problems. Delivering a personal address at the Cedi Conference Centre of the University of Ghana, Legon, on Friday, June 27, the Senior Lecturer in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at the University of Ghana reflected on her journey from a member of AIMS Ghana's inaugural cohort to becoming a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University in New York.
