Isaac Kingsley Amponsah received his Bachelor of Pharmacy degree from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Ghana. I obtained a KNUST scholarship to pursue my Doctor of Philosophy degree in Pharmacognosy at the same university in 2006. I have since undertaken other certificate courses in herbal medicine related fields from the Hanoi University of Pharmacy, Vietnam and i+solutions Amsterdam, Netherlands, through grants from the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ). I did my national service at the department of Pharmacognosy, was also a demonstrator and later appointed as a lecturer in 2012 at the same department, Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical sciences, KNUST. I am currently a senior lecturer of the department.
