My research interest is in the field of Biomedical Sciences (Microbiology, Parasitology, Molecular Biology and Immunology) and mainly focused on transmission and host-parasite interactions of vector-borne infectious and zoonotic diseases. I have carried out previous research on Soil-transmitted helminths (STH) at Bosomtwe in the Ashanti region, Atypical and typical human African Trypanosomiasis at Suhum municipality in the Eastern region and malaria studies at Agona, Obom and NKwanta south in Ashanti, Greater Accra and Oti regions.
Six out of every 10 infectious diseases in people are zoonotic, which makes it crucial that the nation strengthen its capabilities to prevent and respond to these diseases using the experimental and data-driven scientific approach. On that note, would like to supervise students carrying out research in the field of Biomedical Sciences (Microbiology, Parasitology, Biology, Molecular Biology and Immunology), aiming to develop the capacity to manage and prevent vector-borne infectious and zoonotic diseases through surveillance, epidemiological and laboratory investigation to reduce their public health, social and economic impacts.
