Summary of Profile

I have PhD in biochemistry with research in investigating the alterations of intermediary metabolism during diseases especially in comorbidity. I have since gained experience in applying molecular biology and bioinformatics tools to studying the molecular mechanisms of pathology and I am, at present, applying this in my research with the view to developing diagnosis and therapeutics.
I have served as the coordinator of Biochemistry program for two sessions and I am a member of Covenant University Public Health and Well-being Research Group (CUPHWERG) and Covenant University Bioinformatics Research (CuBRe) cluster.
Over the years, I have attended both local and international conferences and I have been part of organizing workshops on molecular biology techniques.
