I was Sam’s colleague at Washington State University for two years. Samuel is a brilliant, self-disciplined, hard working individual. I learned a lot from Sam working with him especially when it came to Tissue Engineering. His work ethics are top notch, showed excellent communication skills, and worked collaboratively. I highly recommend as an independent research scientist and a science communicator.

Samuel C. Uzoechi was a full time student of the Department of Biomedical Technology, Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria. While in his Department, He showed very strong commitment to work. I have known him to be a dedicated, honest and hard working fellow. These character traits saw him through a rigorous undergraduate programme which included a final year project, in which he excelled. I have no hesitation in recommending Samuel C. Uzoechi for any academic work/programme as I believe his tenacity of purpose will see him through such a work/programme.
