A Milestone Achievement for LASU
Director of CESAR, Prof. Benjamin Aribisala, described the development as a major achievement for the institution.
He expressed gratitude to LASU’s Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, whose unwavering support played a pivotal role in the centre’s success.
“This approval is a testament to LASU’s commitment to groundbreaking research and innovation. It provides intellectual property protection for these products, ensuring they are safeguarded against unauthorized reproduction,” Prof. Aribisala stated.

The Vice-Chancellor commended CESAR for its exceptional strides and reaffirmed the university’s dedication to fostering a research-driven environment that produces impactful innovations.
The recognition of these products underscores LASU’s growing reputation as a hub for innovative research and highlights the potential of sargassum-based solutions in addressing challenges in agriculture and sustainability.
