Recently, we caught up with IPPHL alumni Dr. Cordelia Katureebe Mboijana (Cohort 1) and Dr. John Bosco (Cohort 4) to discuss their experiences as fellows of the program and the lessons they have carried with them since graduating. This conversation was a special treat as Dr. Mboijana and Dr. Bosco have known each other for over ten years. They both worked with the Ministry of Health – Uganda under the HIV Control Program during which time Cordelia served as John’s supervisor and mentor.
Dr. Cordelia Katureebe Mboijana is a Medical Doctor and HIV Specialist with the Ministry of Health in Uganda and has been coordinating HIV care and treatment at a national level in Uganda for the past six years. Dr. Mboijana has 17 years of experience as an HIV Specialist. She was part of IPPHL’s inaugural cohort.
Dr. John Bosco is a Public Health and a Monitoring and Evaluation specialist with ICAP at Columbia University on the HIV Coverage, Quality, and Impact Network project (CQUIN). Dr. Bosco serves as the Technical Lead on the differentiated HIV testing services for the 21 countries that are supported by the CQUIN Network and is based in Nairobi Kenya.
