Profile: As a microbiologist and academic lecturer, I have been working on microorganisms that are related to human and health issues. In addition, I have been interested on the microorganisms that inhabit, create, or contaminate the environment and the systems that can be used to combat these pathogenic microbes. In recent years, much interest has been shown in the epidemiological issues and their potential for disease prevention in humans and animals. Relatively, I have been interested in the development of the bacteria resistance against chemotherapeutic agents that is becoming an increasing problem specially the MRSA in hospitals, and this had the potential to facilitate more rational thinking about the Bacteriophages’ therapy for the increasing incidence of bacteria resistant against most antibiotics. I have been working in scientific research with similar challenges and feel that my experience will help work anticipate and respond more quickly and effectively.

Objectives: The main objectives are; managing the applications of Bacteriophage conceptions as integrated therapeutically framework. These include; specific knowledge of research administration, lows regulations, problems analysis, evaluation of issues that support economic progression in the section, achievement of the work and priorities towards the protection of microbiological and sustainable development and other related duties as required.
