The biochemist who heals soil

In Nigeria, biochemist Eucharia Oluchi is working on the ways polluted ecosystems can recover, including by means of phytoremediation (the use of plants). His area of expertise is the fight against heavy metals, such as cadmium, copper, lead and arsenic: he ensures that they are "digested" on the spot instead of having to be removed and dumped elsewhere.
