Congrats to our research fellows, Kevin Esoh & Arthemon Nguweneza on earning their PhDs from @UCT_news. Dr Nguweneza's research investigated risk factors for blood pressure variation in sickle cell disease (SCD), while Dr Esoh explored the genomics of SCD and foetal haemoglobin in African populations. @EsohKevin & @tojoemo, we celebrate your remarkable achievements and wish you boundless success in this new chapter. #UCTGrad2024@UCTHealthSci@SickleInAfrica
