Kimani Mercy Wanjiru
Student Bio
My name is Mercy Kimani. I am a Masters student taking MSc in Biometry at the University of Nairobi. I did my masters project at Kemri-Wellcome Trust Research Programme where, I used genetic data to study the association between vitamin D status and Tuberculosis disease. I completed a Bachelor of science degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at South Eastern Kenya University. I have a great interest in statistical genetics and especially genomic epidemiology which is the field I am hoping to build a career in.
