He has worked predominantly as a community pharmacist for several years but also has experiences within the pharmaceutical industry as well as hospital settings. Edwin has had experience working as a pharmacist in multiple countries and has worked for several well-known companies within his field.

Edwin holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Pharmacy, Master of Public Health from the University of Liverpool and he is currently undertaking his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Global Health at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.

Edwin鈥檚 research interest predominantly centres around public health and more recently global health. As a community pharmacist, his research mainly focuses on health promotion within community pharmacy settings. More recently, however, his research interest has shifted to domain antimicrobial resistance (AMR), infectious diseases and infection prevention and control. His current PhD topic uses focused ethnography to explore the antimicrobial stewardship roles of community pharmacists and other retailers in a suburb of Accra, Ghana.  

Edwin continues to enhance his AMR research through his partnership project between the Faculty of Public Health (UK) and the Ghana Public Health Association. This partnership originally formed in 2019 focuses on antimicrobial stewardship practices in various hospitals and other community settings in Accra, Ghana. With the support of Edwin, a pilot project looking at delayed/backup prescribing of antibiotics for upper respiratory tract infections has now become standard practice in one of the hospitals for the partnership project. Following a recent successful grant application for further work on AMR, Edwin continues to be a pivotal member of the partnership between the Faculty of Public Health and the Ghana Public Health Association.
