I, Isaac Nyarko, was born in Sunyani, Ghana on March 16th, 1986. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Agribusiness from the Evangelical Presbyterian University affiliated with the Cape Coast University in Ghana. I also received my M.S. degree in Forestry Engineering focusing on Tropical Forestry and Agroforestry and am currently pursuing a PhD in Wood Processing and Forest Machinery, all from the Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic. From 2019 until the present, I have been working in a PhD student assistantship at the department of Forest Technologies and Constructions at the Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague. My research interests include forest bioeconomy, forest policy, environmental policy, sustainability, forest mechanization, and forest management. I am highly interested in conducting research and solving some of the challenges we face in the forest environment. I am a member of the International Union of Forest Research Organization (IUFRO).
