-However, what stood out was how diverse my audience was: Some asked what Open Source is and why it matters in the Biotechnology and Biomedical fields? Whereas some audience members were advanced to ask what license is the Shiny App released under and if it allows commercial use, modification and/or redistribution? The diverse audience validated the continuous need for sensitizing about the importance of Open Source tools and Open Science in general. One of the biggest highlights which was satisfying was to experience a Professor from one of the leading universities in Kenya appreciating the content of the poster and commenting that such Open Source tools are the future as they can help in enhancing flexibility in curriculum design. He further added that lecturers and those passionate in capacity development can tailor such tools to course goals especially in lessons that are mathematically and coding intensive.

 ## Final Thoughts
 The AIBBC conference was a humbling experience because for the first time I got to see something that was once a thoughtful concept became a product that was exciting and appreciated by my peers to advanced scientists and lecturers from different scientific backgrounds. However, my greatest achievement was showing that advanced learning does not have to rely on expensive softwares but can also be achieved with an open source Shiny App like DadApp. Students/participants can utilize such open source tools to explore data, visualize results, and understand scientific principles that once felt out of reach. The sparked conversations, encouragement and  collaborative opportunities ignited a strong desire amongst the audience to champion genuine scientific equity, and a recognition that every scientist has a role in bringing that future of Open Science to life.
