Biography

Dr. Oluyinka Ajibola, IYIOLA currently works at the Cell Biology and Genetics Unit, Department of Zoology, University of Ilorin, Nigeria. I have been involved in lecturing, researching and community development activities as a University lecturer. My current projects and interests include Molecular and Genetic Diversity studies of Nigerian animals including but not limited to mosquitoes, ecto and endoparasites, ruminants, wildlife animals, freshwater and marine fishes using various types of Molecular Biology approaches and DNA-based markers. My current research interests focus on the use of molecular tools for animal species identification, taxonomy, biodiversity study and conservation purposes.
