Biography

I am a year 2 graduate student MSc International Infectious Disease Management (MIDM), engaged in graduate research project. I have interest in public health policy and legislation, epidemiology, disease surveillance, vaccine research and development, disease mathematical modelling. However, I have also commenced on mRNA vaccine research for HIV, TB, Malaria, Coronaviruses and haemorrhagic fevers (Ebola virus, Yellow fever, Dengue, Murburg and Lassa).These diseases cause significant morbidity and mortality in sub Saharan Africa where I live. It is a duty to be part of the solution.
