A medical Laboratory scientist by professional training. I hold a bachelor’s degree in medical laboratory science from Nigeria and a Master’s degree in Biology from Western Illinois University. With an anticipated graduation date of Summer 2027, I have been focusing on exploring the molecular underpinnings of cardiovascular diseases and obesity since joining the ARAS Lab in April 2024. My research is driven by a passion to understand the complex interplay between these two significant health challenges, and I am committed to uncovering novel insights that will drive the development of effective treatments and improve patient outcomes.
