Honored to be one of this year's SGC/IAC Nebula Award recipients. I see this as a giant leap—echoing Neil Armstrong—as it fuels my passion to explore how space-based solutions can revolutionize surgical care in underserved regions.
Ad Astra!

I was privileged to meet Dr @RenzoGuinto and Professor @paimadhu yesterday during @GlobalUct ´s powerful symposium on Equity in Global Health Research and Education😊!
Africa has historically fueled industrial revolutions yet not reaping the benefits of these revolutions! Now standing (again) at forefront of the fourth revolution, it is vital to advocate for a paradigm shift by ensuring that health data becomes a catalyst for positive change. – at Cape Town, South Africa
Impressive work! Congratulations to the authors🔥 – at Cape Town, South Africa

Dr. @FiegsZA delivers an incredible #uoftglobalsx21 keynote, titled "A view from the South," to discuss COVID-19 as a teaching moment in global surgical education–and a deserved shoutout to the #GlobalSurgery leadership by Prof. @MrsMaswime @GlobalUct.
I’m grateful to @UNOOSA @csa_asc for sponsoring my participation in the ‘23 @Space4WomenOOSA expert meeting. As a Global Surgery fellow @GlobalUct, I stress global surgery’s role for gender equality especially in LMICs, where women face numerous challenges accessing healthcare. – at Montréal, Québec

Our environment determines our health! Health is not only about physiology/pathophysiology.

My mother is a teacher for over 25 years and has nurtured many girls through her role in Guidance and Counselling, History and CRE. She suddenly fell ill and needs your support to continue to educate and empower our children.

I seized this opportunity to emphasize the environmental impact of surgical care.
I think promoting sustainable surgical practices in Africa is linked to decolonization as it has to do with diverting from the historically unsustainable practices of the “West” to local knowledge. – at Cape Town, South Africa
Session two, led by @Ishmozeh, offered a sneak peek into our Global Surgery in Action program, simulation and surgical care with insights from @JoParkRoss, and discussions on environmental impact of surgical care and decolonizing global surgery with @YvanZolo!

Attempting to be a ‘very strict’ timekeeper and moderator and failing miserably😁 because the discussions were so rich and in-depth @DecolonisingGH
