Doctoral student
Miguel took his bachelor of science degree in psychology from the University of the Philippines Diliman in 2004 then gained his doctor of medicine degree from the University of the Philippines Manila in 2009. He then took his Master of Science in International Health in the Institute of Global Health in Heidelberg in 2015.
