Biography

I am a highly motivated and enthusiastic veterinary microbiologist. I have a keen interest in vaccines, drugs, biomedicine, bioinformatics, tropical infectious diseases and zoonosis. I hope to significantly improve public health and wellbeing through advanced knowledge in molecular techniques, therapeutics, proteomics, molecular diagnosis, biologicals/vaccine design and production. I have ten years working experience with proven skills in handling mildly infectious bacteria and the production of avian and bovine bacterial vaccines.
