I have successfully supervised students\u2019 projects at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels with various multidisciplinary collaborations which include areas in Genetics, Genomics, Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering. I am hardworking, full of determination for success, reliable and of high level of integrity.<\/strong> <strong>I have vast knowledge, skills and experience in genetics, genomics, bioinformatics, biomedical engineering and information technology. I have participated in trainings and capacity building on genomics, biomedical engineering, bioinformatics and grant writing within and outside Nigeria. As part of my research successes, I discovered a new A\/G SNP in the study of mirn125a as a biomarker in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility among Nigerian women. I have published many scientific articles.
