Personal Statement
I am a faculty member in the Department of Physics, University of Lagos with interest in Optical Physics. My research interest is particularly in developing and exploring novel materials for optical applications in renewable energy and medical diagnosis. We use various computational tools to simulate and study the properties of novel optical materials. For our computational work, we have access to high power computing offered by the Lengau CHPC situated in South Africa. My teaching focuses on applied physics courses, including optics and electronics, both at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Outside the classroom and the laboratory, I engage in social activities that help to develop the triune nature of man. To learn more about me outside the classroom, you can visit www.livingseed.org.
