| Science Interest (Past) |
with bioinformatics background, I had interest in working on tuberculosis due to its economic burden and lack of new drugs. in this, I was working on developing 3D ribosomal structures that can be used in I docking experiment and used for drug screening and drug development.
At the same time, I was also involved in studies that involved developing a 3D structure of the 40s ribosome with the aim of better understanding of the parasite and could be used for some drug target screening. |
||||
| Science Interest (Current) |
My interest has led me to working on genetics analysis which involves deciphering the role of different immune genes in relation to protection or predisposition of an individual to a diseases or conditions. | ||||
| Science Interest (Future) |
With the world heading to personalized medicine in the near future, I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge in the area of genetics analysis, whole genome association studies, pharmacogenomics among others.
At the same time, I hope to work with protein structures in trying to develop new drugs and in order to alleviate human life. |
