My interests in research have been quite diverse to include projects in environmental monitoring techniques, drug analysis techniques, pharmacokinetics modeling, solar energy conversion and science curriculum development. One of my initial research objectives is residue analysis methodology development for environmental pollutants. Will also actively participate in science curriculum development programs. These objectives may change in the future based on the needs of the institution and the availability of equipment and other facilities and also upon my collaboration with my colleagues in some joint ventures.
