- Ajovi Scott-Emuakpor discusses his international career as a geneticist, physician, faculty member and administrator, much of it spent in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development at Michigan State University. Ajovi recalls coming to MSU from Nigeria in 1965 as an undergraduate, joining the department as a graduate student in 1968 and working with the original faculty. He describes the college's early curriculum and focus on patient care and recognizes the uniqueness of pioneering efforts now copied at many other institutions. Ajovi also talks about returning to Nigeria to become Director of the Institute of Child Health and later coming back to MSU as a Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development.
