Research Interest
Trained as a reproductive endocrinologist with a background in cell signaling. Over the years, I gradually shifted my area of interest in research to become involved with immunology of cancer immunotherapy, asthma and inflammation biology. My boundaries of research were further enhanced by extending myself in teaching over the last seven years. Presently, I am involved with teaching and coordination/administration of the undergraduate physiology course in this department. The topics that I currently teach are: Hematology, Renal Physiology, Endocrinology, and Reproduction. My commitment to teaching involves students from the Faculty of Science, Pharmacy, Agriculture, Food and Nutrition, Radiation Therapy and Dental Hygiene. I am interested in pursuing directions and ideas that will enhance student engagement and learning experience in class.
