From Kingston to the Moon: A Journey of Science and Service | Dr. Maureen Vickers-Lahti, MBBS ’82B

In February 1983, I graduated from the University of the West AVƽ̨, completing two years of internship at the University Hospital of the West AVƽ̨ (UHWI). With a passion for public health and data, I pursued a Master of Public Health (MPH) in Epidemiology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I remained at UMass Amherst following graduation, supporting numerous research projects with a focus on data management and analysis in epidemiological studies.

But more than 50 years before today, another unforgettable experience helped shape my journey.
