Day 3. A thorough review on the patterns of my favorite animal (Impala). It is important to preserve this animal rather than just killing. Harisi gwenansense iri. @OppGenRC

I always find great joy in sharing our One Health approach that is protecting endangered gorillas and helping people understand how closely conservation and human health are connected.
Thank you to the Oppenheimer Research Conference for inviting me to deliver a keynote address this year. It was an honor to engage with fellow researchers and conservationists dedicated to creating a healthier planet for both people and wildlife.
