🖤 IN MEMORY OF DR. STEPHEN ASIIMWE🙏
It is with profound sorrow that we mourn the passing of our beloved Pace Hiker, Dr. Stephen Asiimwe.
An adventurous, loving, and highly respected soul who brought warmth, friendship and an unforgettable spirit to our Pace family. Death has robbed us of a dear Pace buddy, but his memories will forever remain with us.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.
In his honour, we dedicate this Friday’s hill repeats training to his memory. We invite all Pacers to wear black T-shirts as we observe a moment of silence and celebrate a life well lived.
Rest in peace, Dr. Stephen Asiimwe. Your journey with us will never be forgotten.

Networking should be a course unit in med school 💯. – at Mbarara, Uganda
Very true.
Part of education should include networking.
Infact the major goal in education should be networking.
You cannot go @Makerere , @YaleMed @McMasterU & @LSHTM and fail to make networks.
Networking is key.
It's all about using opportunities well!
