Enas Newire completed an e-learning Masters degree in infectious diseases at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) and with the help of a scholarship from the Schlumberger Foundation, a non-profit body supporting science and technology education, she has been able to study towards a doctorate in antimicrobial strategies and resistance.
