DICE: Leveraging Data Science Applications to Improve Children's Environmental Health in Sub-Saharan Africa (PhD Student)
I am a PhD student at the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, currently pursuing doctoral research in Epidemiology, with specific focus on Air Pollution Epidemiology. My work focuses on area and household-level factors that explain spatial variability in the relationship between ambient air pollution and child health outcomes in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Prior to beginning my PhD, I completed my Master's degree in Population and Health at the University of Cape Coast, where I developed a strong foundation in public health and data analytics.
