Bloomberg School students assess Ebola interventions at outbreak epicenter.
When the Red Cross asked for help conducting Ebola-related research in Guinea, Bloomberg School doctoral students Tim Roberton and Clementine Fu immediately stepped forward. From July 19 to August 1, the two worked in the outbreak’s initial epicenter in Guéckédou, and in the capital city of Conakry.
“Working on an Ebola outbreak like this is such a rare and exciting opportunity,” said Roberton, a fourth-year doctoral student. Hired as consultants by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the two assessed that organization’s response to the crisis in real-time.
