@ruthadewale
I optimize hospital operations and clinical data with molecular microbiology expertise.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I lead hospital operations at 19 Specialist Hospital in Zaria, managing Athenahealth (AthenaOne), patient-record accuracy, revenue-cycle processes, procurement, and clinical workflows. My operational leadership earned Best Manager of the Year recognition in 2023 and 2024.
I've also supported CDC- and PEPFAR-funded research with IHVN, performing molecular diagnostics for HIV and TB, PCR analysis, DNA extraction, gene sequencing, and ICH-GCP documentation. I bring a practical link between clinical data integrity, regulatory compliance, and public-health reporting.
Alongside my operations and research work, I've taught clinical microbiology and infectious diseases, mentored more than 50 student research projects, and developed curricula in biosafety and diagnostics. I'm completing an MSc in Microbiology focused on influenza molecular characterization and vaccine efficacy.
