Position:  Associate Professor

HEC Approved Supervisor:  YES

Research Intersts:  The research interests of my career are focused on understanding the molecular and immunological basis of public health infectious diseases at human-animal interface such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, nosocomial infections, HBV, HCV and developing different animal models of hepatitis. My veterinary background and the study of cytokines during hepatitis further motivated me to investigate the innate and adaptive immune responses during various infectious diseases. Stimulation of innate immune receptors by specific bacterial or viral ligands and shift towards adaptive immune compartment by cytokines provide interesting tool to manipulate host immune system for better protection against infections. I have experience to study the veterinary associated infectious diseases during my masters in Pakistan and cytokine immunology during my masters/Ph.D research in France. This combination of both competencies will help me to use these immunological molecules in the enhancement of vaccine responses against prevalent infectious diseases of public health. I have extensive experience in characterization of cellular and molecular immune responses during hepatitis in murine animal models and in human that will help to use this immunology based knowledge for the therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. My future goals will be to study the immuno-pathogenesis of emerging infectious diseases and to develop preventive strategies against prevalent Public Health/One Health diseases.
