I have a degree in Veterinary Medicine (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) from Jimma University, in Ethiopia, in 2008; Master of Science in Biology - with two disciplinary Tracks namely Molecular and Physiological Biology and Evolutionary and Ecological Biology, from KULeuven, Belgium.

I am particularly interested in cytokines and the usage of such biologicals in modulating immune responses.
