Dear visitor,
This website informs you briefly about my activities as Assistant Professor at Southern University at New Orleans.
My office is currently located in New Science bldg. R.315, South Campus and my phone # is 286-5111.
My research interests are host microbe interactions. One focus is on Chlamydia trachomatis or Mycobacteria as pathogens and macrophages as host cells. Another area concentrates on microbes and fish as hosts.
My lecture and lab classes are including general biology, general microbiology, pathogenic microbiology and immunology, and last not least — molecular biology.
