Department:  Faculty of Veterinary Science, Institute of Microbiology

Position:  Incharge/Associate Professor

HEC Approved Supervisor:  YES

Research Intersts:  I am focused to develop conventional vaccines i.e., embryonated chicken egg adapted Newcastle disease, Avian Influenza virus vaccine and Avian Adenovirus vaccines for poultry as well as unconventional vaccines i.e., recombinant Newcastle disease virus expressing Heamagglutinin protein of Avian Influenza virus. Main target of mine is to train human resource capable of vaccine production locally instead of importing the vaccines spending huge foreign exchange. Another group of my students is actively engaged in bioplastic research.
