Biography

Fakorede Christopher Oladimeji B. Sc. (Hons), M. Sc., Ph.D. LASU
I am an individual who is self-motivated with skills and knowledge in research of infections, molecular epidemiology, molecular diagnosis, antibiotics resistance, surveillance and stewardship. My research is currently focused on genomic investigation of Salmonella and ESKAPE pathogens in relation to One Health. I am interested in the academics i.e. teaching as well as ground breaking research especially in area of bacteria genomics
