Biography:

I am a young female scientist from the Gambia @ The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. I am passionate about bringing change to the world of tuberculosis treatment. My vision is to contribute significantly to the development of novel treatment strategies against tuberculosis in Africa. This vision has been shaped by my current position as a Scientific Officer under the project TB host-directed therapeutics for Africa group and the experience of the fatal impact of TB within my neighbourhood community. I believe I am in the right place and time to make this vision a reality.
