Yawale is Associate Professor of Pathology at Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria, Nigeria, and President of the West African Division of the International Academy of Pathology. Having served as Chief Consultant Histopathologist in the Nigerian Army from 1994–2006, he now coordinates the activities of various African societies and is responsible for training pathologists in Nigeria. “We mentor students from across Nigeria, West Africa, and even the East African sub-region more broadly,” says Yawale. “We encourage them to develop abstracts and support their efforts to obtain bursaries so that they can attend global pathology meetings and expand their horizons.”
