Profile & Portfolio

Biologists

My passion to serve humanity has been my driving force throughout my educational career. Having experience of working in academic, research and clinical environment has provided me with the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience. The skills that I have gathered from my academic background can be applied for the development of medical care. My main research interests include, but are not limited to: Immunology/ Microbiology/Molecular Biology Research etc. I love the idea of putting together a diverse group of researchers from all fields to make this world better place for all.

Am good in research and laboratory work like, collection of samples, labelling of samples, and analysis of samples, microscopy and am able to observe aseptic techniques and safety when carrying out laboratory work. As part of my degree I was able to carry out a project that involved isolation of bacteria from raw milk and this involved a lot of laboratory work. From this project I learnt how to work independently in the laboratory, observe aseptic techniques and obtain results and analyse the results from my research work.
