Research Contributions

Miriam Nakanwagi has made significant contributions to the field of epidemiology, with a particular focus on HIV/AIDS, meningitis, anthrax, and methanol poisoning. Notably, her work has highlighted the challenges in achieving HIV viral suppression among individuals receiving treatment at military-managed health facilities in Uganda. She has also investigated the low proportion of women who were aware of their HIV status at their first antenatal care visit, a critical factor for preventing mother-to-child transmission. Additionally, her research includes detailed analyses of outbreaks of meningococcal meningitis and gastrointestinal anthrax, as well as fatal methanol poisoning incidents, providing crucial insights into public health responses and preventive measures.
