“From Scientist to Policy Advocate: Nyatichi Lazizi Mandi’s Reflection on Genomics and Ethics in Africa
We’re proud to share the latest reflection in our Policy Advocacy in Genetics and Genomics blog series – featuring Nyatichi Lazizi Mandi from Kenya, a participant in the 12th Cohort of the course sponsored by PAPERI.
In her piece, Nyatichi explores how the course reshaped her view of what it means to be a scientist – from focusing solely on research to embracing advocacy, ethics, and inclusive policy development in genomics.
She calls for context-specific and equitable frameworks to guide genomic research in Africa, ensuring that science serves communities responsibly and transparently.”
