Vershima Paul Ikoamo
@vershimapaulikoamo
I conduct physiological assessments, diagnostic imaging, and public health research on environmental health, nutrition, and antimicrobial resistance.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently conducting environmental sustainability research at Joseph Sarwuan Tarka University on surface-water quality and antimicrobial resistance linked to domestic wastewater discharge in Osogbo.
As a Medical Sonographer at Royal Optimal Diagnostic Services, I perform diagnostic ultrasound examinations, document technical findings, and support accurate clinical reporting. Previously, I conducted obstetric and gynecological imaging at RUMAYSA and ECG and echocardiography procedures at NeuTymes Diagnostics.
My public health research includes household food security, nutrition, visual acuity, quantitative data collection, literature review, biostatistics, and scientific reporting. I'm completing MPH training while building on a foundation in human physiology, anatomy, biochemistry, and environmental health.
