Esther's PhD journey commenced with the meticulous development of her research proposal, which aimed to tackle microplastics contaminating ecosystems around the world. Intrigued by the potential of photocatalytic degradation techniques, she envisioned a path to not only remove these tiny plastic particles but also to mitigate their far-reaching consequences on aquatic life and human health.

Back in her laboratory, Esther meticulously analyzes data from her experiments, delving into the intricate mechanisms of photocatalysis. Her research not only seeks to refine the technique but also aims to optimize its efficiency and effectiveness in removing microplastics from water bodies.

Esther's commitment to knowledge dissemination takes her to international conferences, where she shares her groundbreaking work with a global audience. Her presentations at esteemed events like the "One Health and the Role of Water" and the "Zanzibar Water Conference" have ignited discussions and fostered collaborations among experts and stakeholders, accelerating the fight against microplastics pollution.
