Kwabena has a dedicated passion for directly fighting the burden/impact of health disparities on Black and Underrepresented patients using precision medicine approaches. His career goal is to increase Black representation among clinical teams (physician-scientists, physicians, scientists, etc.) within his field and to collaborate with others to consolidate the knowledge acquired during their years of study and clinical experience into practical and effective targeted therapeutic methods to alleviate the significant and ever emerging health burden seen within the African diaspora across disease types.
