Over the next 6 weeks we’ll be highlighting our wonderful new group of
2021 Summer Program students.
Anjola Adeyemo graduated with a major in Biology and a minor in Applied Statistics and Data Analysis from Kennesaw State University in May 2021. She is currently applying to masters’ programs and data analyst positions. Anjola wants to use data to improve healthcare for minorities and to track the spread of diseases. One of her research interests is in infant mortality and infant growth charts. Ultimately, after pursuing her education, she hopes to work at the CDC as an epidemiologist or as a data analyst.
