P.S: This year 2025 global theme is  "Empowering Healthcare through Imaging Excellence! To start with, ​In our anatomy studies, we spend hours learning, visualizing, drawing diagrams and memorizing the location, functions and relationships of each and every structure of the human body .  But how do we move from theoretical understanding to certainty in the clinical world? ​It’s simple: In healthcare, guessing is risky and assumptions are dangerous, so we rely on visual confirmation. ​And that's where Radiography steps in. 🔍 What is Radiography?

Taking STEM Offline

On November 12, 2024, I had the incredible opportunity to visit Zumratul Islamiyyah Senior High School (ZISHS) and Zumratul Islammiyah Junior High School (ZIJHS) in Yaba, to take our mission offline and talk about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

I focused especially on SDG 4: Quality Education , which is central to everything we do at EstheraSTEM and I explained how our work promotes this goal through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) education, with future plans of incorporating art into it to be STEAM which promotes more creativity. Next, I introduced EstheraSTEM itself, how it started in 2022 as a STEM club for my Rise challenge project, and how it’s grown into a st...
