"For he who has health has hope; and he who has hope has everything" My name is Basil and I am a community pharmacist, currently pursuing my PhD research in Public Health. My research is on how early child nutrition i.e. breastfeeding is associated with adolescent mental health. What I enjoy about my research is reading articles, examining data, creative writing and attending conferences.
My career goal is to have a positive impact on people's lives. Finishing my PhD on time and working for Department of Health can help me acheive this goal.
