Blessing Musiimenta

I graduated, yeey! 🥳🎉🎓And the walk in Piazza maggiore, Bologna🇮🇹 during the PhD graduation ceremony was amazing #laurea #phdgradution #graduation2025

I started my new job today as a post doctoral researcher at INAF OAR in Rome. I will be working on the optical/IR spectroscopy of z>6 quasars. I am super excited🤩. #postdoc #academia

Officially Dr. Musiimenta. 🎉🎉. The PhD is done and dusted!

@BuregyeyaDerick @MbararaHospital @DianaAtwine @MinofHealthUG @KagutaMuseveni @JaneRuth_Aceng @AnitahAmong @Thomas_Tayebwa @Parliament_Ug @jessica_alupo @nbstv @StateHouseUg I think Ugandans don’t understand what government/public hospitals mean. If you get free consultation, that should be enough. Expecting free drugs is insane.

Corruption at @MbararaHospital is out of Ugandans ' hands . Does the government give them drugs, everything at the hospital is charged ,unless you have a hand out you can't receive a service at the hospital. @DianaAtwine ,@MinofHealthUG , @KagutaMuseveni @JaneRuth_Aceng help us?

Congratulations Dr. Mugume🎓👨🏾‍⚕️🎉🎉 @EliasMUGUME2 . Go and save people’s lives! #MUSTGrad24

Congratulations Dr. Muheki🎉🎉

@mblessing256 @MarcellaBrusa Where next? Do you know?

At the last science session of the @astronomy2024 meeting giving my talk about my PhD work “incidences and energetics of AGN outflows in X-ray selected samples” #IAUGA2024 #Astronomy2024

It was a pleasure to be hosted by the Ambassador of Italy in Cape Town in honor of the @astronomy2024 meeting happening in Africa for the first time. We look forward to the next IAUGA2027 in Rome, Italy. #IAUGA2024 #Astronomy2024

@spaceclubke @astronomy2024 I may have been confusing the two. Thanks for the correction

@mblessing256 @astronomy2024 we also hosted Dr.Sian here in kenya recently. feels good right? but she's the fourth African american to travel to space and not the first, the latter was Mae Jemison.

From the gala dinner at the @astronomy2024. That's the book with inspiring stories from women in astronomy in Africa. Finally took a pic with the first African American woman to go to space, Dr. Sian Proctor. Anne and I in our traditional dresses from Masai and Bakiga.
