Profile
Mrs. Daisy Afra Lumor is a senior midwifery academic and clinician with over eighteen years of cumulative professional experience. Her career is built upon an integrated foundation of hands-on clinical practice, tertiary-level education, and academic research.
She began her career with six years of dedicated clinical midwifery, providing full-spectrum, compassionate care throughout pregnancy,labour, and the postnatal period. This direct practical experience forms the essential, real-world basis for her educational and scholarly work.
For the past twelve years, Mrs. Lumor has served as a midwifery educator at the tertiary level. Her teaching methodology is characterized by the deliberate fusion of rigorous theoretical instruction with practical clinical training. Her primary educational objectives are to cultivate students' clinical competencies, critical thinking abilities, and capacity for empathetic, woman-centred care. She actively bridges the gap between theory and practice through hands-on mentorship and supervision during student clinical placements.
In addition to her teaching, Mrs. Lumor has established a focused research agenda in reproductive health. Her scholarly contributions include publications in reputable, peer-reviewed journals such as Frontiers in Global Women’s Health and PLOS One. Demonstrating a deep commitment to advancing the field’s knowledge base, she is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Midwifery. This doctoral work directly supports her core professional mission: to consistently integrate evidence-based findings into both her teaching practice and her ongoing research outputs.
Mrs. Lumor’s professional identity is thus that of an academic-clinician, where clinical expertise directly enriches teaching, and both are systematically informed and advanced by dedicated scholarly inquiry.
