I'm a highly motivated student interested in cancer research, Malaria research, Chronic Kidney Disease using iPSCs, and drug discovery. Also, I'm involved in studying and understanding the molecular mechanisms and pharmacological targets of natural products and/ or drugs against cancer, malaria and aging particularly mechanism of action and finding Therapeutic targets, using biochemistry, cell, and molecular biology, computational biology, and bioinformatics techniques From ORCID
