Biography

Accounting can be divided into several fields including financial accounting, management accounting, external auditing, tax accounting and cost accounting. Accounting information systems are designed to support accounting functions and related activities. Financial accounting focuses on the reporting of an organization’s financial information, including the preparation of financial statements, to the external users of the information, such as investors.

Currently, Professor John is focusing his research on individual investor behavior and company incentives to better understand how disclosure affects stock returns and to uncover possible mispricing. Nevertheless, John is conducting an new way of examination of analyst access to information, and he is investigating market reactions to natural issues and the impact that would occur on individual firms.

Past and Present Projects

2022 –2025    “The consequences of biodiversity loss and land use change on infectious disease emergence”  is a collaboration between Makerere University (CoNAS & CoVAB), University of Bonn (Germany), Charite University of Medicine’s Institute of Virology (Germany), and Uganda Virus Research Institute, Entebbe. The Project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), grant registration number: BI 2357/1-1.

2021–2022     “A survey of mosquito species diversity and abundance in Uganda’s Lake Victoria Basin: an assessment of the transmission risk of mosquito-borne arboviruses” is a collaboration between Department of Plant Sciences, Microbiology and Biotechnology (CoNAS, Makerere University), and the Department of Arbovirology, Emerging and Re-emerging diseases (Uganda Virus Research Institute, Entebbe). Project is supported by Makerere University Research & Innovations Fund.
