Oluwamuyiwa Ogunkoya
Executive Director
MedLabConvo has evolved over the past 4 years. The team was initially committed to publicising the Medical Laboratory Science profession through various social media platforms, as well as building the overall capacity of young Medical Laboratory Scientists and Students through virtual and onsite training programmes.
After successfully bridging the gap between seasoned Medical Laboratory Science professionals and students/emerging professionals in terms of mentorship, knowledge sharing and creating connections and platforms, the team has transitioned to equipping the future of healthcare without any professional bias. The bigger picture is to be involved in health promotion and strengthening of health systems by investing in emerging healthcare professionals
WHAT WE DO
Our Focus Themes
Our various programs span across three areas
Capacity Building
At MedLabConvo, we strongly believe that the quality of health equals capacity of its healthcare professionals, hence, we carry out various capacity-building programmes and training for the students and young professionals
Health Advocacy
At MedLabConvo, we are passionate about quality healthcare delivery, and as such, we use social media platforms to improve health education and ensure health promotion.
Partnerships
We are constantly seeking partners to advance our mission. So far, MLC has partnered with over 50 individuals across 11 countries, as well as 14 organizations across Africa
