While studying medicine at University of Zimbabwe (UZ), I had ??? like where do medicines come from? Who makes them and how? 2 semesters later, I dropped out & my journey to finding answers began. Today, I got my 1st dose of a vaccine whose development I was part of. #pfizerproud

Surround yourself with the right people & value authenticity not just agreement. True personal & professional growth comes from diverse perspectives & constructive feedback. Surround yourself with people who challenge you to be better, not just ones who echo what you want to hear

This Black History Month, I salute Onesimus, an African slave who saved many lives in Boston using a techniq developed in Africa, which protected pple from smallpox. The techniq gave hope for future epidemics, set the stage for vaccination & led to the eradication of smallpox.

A serious healthcare prof. knows you're racing against time when it comes to patients. A doc get's a patient in crit. cond, takes a 2h lunch w/o attending a patient. Remembers it's his b/d, goes to buy cake 4 another 2h, takes nurses to celebrate 2h, patient dies in 7th h 💔💔💔

Education system back home on the continent is very rigid and we’ll need to change that when it’s time to empower the talent and fuel innovation 🙏🏿⏳🙏🏿!

2020 has been a turbulent and stressful year. Despite the challenges, God's mercy and favor has taken us this far. As you take time to be with family and friends (in person or virtual), I wish you a very Merry Christmas! Be safe and God bless you!

Levels of coronavirus in waste water, which correlates with # of + covid cases. This can easily become a disaster in developing nations, which many don't have state-of-the-art waste water purification processes (WWPP). Africa, we can easily modernize our healthcare systems & WWPP

"African governments spend more on servicing debt than on COVID-19" Africa is losing so many lives unnecessarily because of broken healthcare systems, misguided priorities 💔💔💔

Our scars have this strange power to always remind us that our past was real. I'm however grateful and excited about the future because the power to change it for the better is still in our hands. Happy Easter and have a great week ahead!

Me & my Pfizer colleagues were at HSSU, a historically black university in STL to talk about career development & opportunities at Pfizer, obviously hoping they join us in the future. It’s JOY to talk to students, a few years ago I was like them & now I’m on the other side 😊

Science & Tech are critical for our development. But zvinodzidziswa nechirungu, which sometimes makes it difficult to understand even basic concepts. This creates a barrier especially for kids and even for parents. I think we should use local languages. What do you think?

A bit nostalgic, this was in 2013 on this day after we received the good news that we passed our PhD qualification exams in our cohort. We went to a Cardinals baseball game to celebrate as we were venturing into different research areas.

Not a big fun of turbulence during flight but the lady next to me was holding her crucifix very tightly and firmly. I could hear her silent whisper, “Lord help me, I’m your servant, I still need time”, and I can relate 😊😊.

She's 105 years old and just got her Master's degree from Stanford, what makes you persistently think you have no chance and it's over for you?
