Biography
I am a molecular biology researcher with expertise in vector-borne diseases who is also interested in medical entomology and host-parasite-vector interactions. Research interests
I am passionate about vector-borne disease aetiology and prognosis for improved diagnosis, control, and management. More importantly, my goal is to identify immunogenic proteins for novel diagnostic tools and vaccine development against vector diseases and their vectors. Additionally, am interested in AI driven solutions for disease diagnosis Projects you're working on
