MSc Honours Student

Nobuhle is currently a master’s student in microbiology with a strong academic background in both genetics and microbiology. She holds a BSc degree in genetics and microbiology and completed her BSc Honours in microbiology, where she developed an interest in molecular biology and bioinformatics. Her current research examines the relationships between microbial communities and altered metabolic pathways that contribute to stunting in informal settlements.

Nobuhle is passionate about using integrative approaches, such as molecular techniques and bioinformatics, to understand complex biological data. She is driven by a belief in the power of science to inform public health, shape policy, and improve the lives of people. With a commitment to interdisciplinary science and translational research, Nobuhle hopes to contribute to a better understanding of how microbial and environmental factors intersect with human development and well-being.
