Dr. Kabiru Gulma

I am an Associate Professor of Global Health and Health Systems Optimization with extensive experience in teaching, research, and health systems strengthening across Africa and beyond. Trained as a pharmacist with advanced degrees in public health and business administration, my work spans academia, health policy, and program management. I currently serve with Euclid University and Euler-Franeker Memorial University, while also supervising doctoral research at the University of Port Harcourt. Beyond academia, I contribute to improving primary healthcare financing and digital health innovations in Nigeria through my role at the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI). My research focuses on epidemiology, health policy, and the application of technology to optimize healthcare delivery. I am the developer of McGulma’s Pharmaceutical Dictionary, a pioneering digital resource for pharmaceutical education. Passionate about advancing public health, I actively publish in peer-reviewed journals, mentor postgraduate students, and collaborate globally on initiatives that strengthen healthcare systems and improve outcomes.
