I am a 1994 Histopathology/Cytopathology Associate degree (AMLSCNpath/BMLS.) holder and Fellow of Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (FMLSCNpath). My training institutions were Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital Complex Ile-Ife and University College Hospital Ibadan. I have 32 Credit of Institute of Biomedical Science of United Kingdom (UK). I also possessed Master’s Degree in histopathology/Cytopathology from the Ambrose Alli University in the year 2010; I lectured General pathology and Cytopathology in Department of Medical Laboratory Science at Achievers’ University, Owo, 2009-2010. I am an external examiner in the department of Medical laboratory Sciences of Imo State University, Ambrose Alli University, University of Lagos and University of Ibadan etc. I am a registered (Fellow) Medical laboratory Science Council of Nigeria with RF1163. I obtained a PhD degree in Human Anatomy and Cell Biology at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile- Ife 2017. I have been a senior lecturer since 2017 to date at Babcock University, Ilisan – Ogun state Nigeria. I have over ten years of teaching and research experience in Medical Laboratory Science at undergraduate levels to Fellowships; I am presently on Sabbatical at the Elizade University in the department of Medical Laboratory Sciences where I have acted as Acting Head of the Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences. As part of my achievements in the past years in teaching and research, I have over twenty-five (25) publications (both local and international to my credit.
