Lloyce Frimpong

Fulbright University of Bristol Summer Institute - Arts, Activism and Social Justice

Lloyce was born in Columbus, Ohio, and raised in both Ghana and Maryland. She is a rising junior at Towson University, double majoring in Biology and Environmental Science. Passionate about research, she is involved in nanotechnology work, synthesizing metal nanostructures. She is a STEM peer mentor to incoming freshmen and volunteers at her local hospital’s infusion center. Her interests lie at the intersection of environmental and human health, particularly in addressing unhealthy food systems and their disproportionate impact on marginalized communities.

As a first-generation college student, Lloyce values education and strives to bring an integrated perspective to medicine and healthcare. She aspires to become a physician committed to building communities that support holistic healing. In her free time, she enjoys crocheting and running.

Traveling to the UK for the first time, Lloyce is excited to participate in the University of Bristol Summer Institute Program and immerse herself in Bristol’s vibrant arts and historical scene. She looks forward to exploring the curriculum, gaining social and historical context on global issues, and learning about effective strategies for change. She hopes to carry these insights into her future career and is eager to connect with and learn from the 2025 cohort.
