Articles, Interesting Things, My Contribution to Science

Sickle cell disease and Malaria in Ghana and exosomal microRNAs

Our most recent article has just been published. We are always on the quest for global health and biomedical research. I began collecting samples in Ghana in 2014, as I mentioned in my first post on this blog. Contributing to science and patient health at this level is so rewarding. This article is dedicated to the volunteers, both patients and healthy, who agreed to take part in this study. I applaud their bravery. Also, I want to thank the Ghanaian people in general, since nothing would have been accomplished if it weren’t for their good will and spirit. I would like to thank the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research, the University of Ghana, the Korle-Bu teaching hospital, and the Dodowa Regional hospital in Ghana, as well as the National Institutes of Health’s Fogarty International Center and Morehouse School of Medicine.
