Biography
Aishat is a veterinary professional with a strong passion for vaccinology, antimicrobial resistance, and microbial pathogenesis research. She holds a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, and has hands-on experience in virology, bacteriology and immunology. She has actively participated in the diagnosis of various infections diseases.
Her research interests focus on developing innovative solutions to combat infectious diseases in animals and humans. She is particularly keen on exploring vaccine development as a sustainable approach to disease prevention, aiming to contribute to global One Health initiatives. Currently, she is a research assistant in the department of Veterinary Microbiology, University of Ibadan as well as a practicing veterinarian. She aims to advance her academic career by pursuing graduate studies in Biomedical Sciences with aspirations of becoming a leading researcher in biomedical science.
Aishat is eager to collaborate with experts in veterinary vaccinology, contribute to discussions on emerging vaccine technologies, and support efforts to improve animal health and public health through immunization strategies. Research interests
My research interests lie at the intersection of microbiology, immunology, and vaccinology, with a particular focus on antimicrobial resistance and infectious disease prevention. I am passionate about understanding bacterial and viral pathogenesis using molecular biology techniques to develop innovative solutions, including bacteriophage therapy and vaccine development, as alternatives to antibiotics.
I am especially interested in veterinary vaccinology exploring how vaccines can be optimized to prevent zoonotic and economically significant animal diseases. My goal is to contribute to One Health initiatives by studying host-pathogen interactions, immune responses to vaccination, and emerging vaccine technologies that can improve animal and public health.
I aim to collaborate with experts in virology, bacterial pathogenesis, and vaccine development to advance knowledge in these fields and drive impactful research that addresses global health challenges.
