Dr. Muhammad Aamir Aslam, Ph.D.

Department:  Faculty of Veterinary Science, Institute of Microbiology

Position:  Assistant Professor

HEC Approved Supervisor:  NO

Research Intersts:  The aim of my research and teaching is focused on finding molecular basis of the infectious diseases and interactions of microbes with immune cells. I am interested to decipher the particular features of microbes at molecular level which make them especially interesting from pathogenicity point of view. I am also interested to know how the microbes interact with immune system and modulate its response during disease conditions. During my master studies in The Netherlands I investigated the role of the histone post-translational modifications in the DNA damage repair response in the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae”. I had the opportunity to work with molecular biology techniques, like PCR, site directed mutagenesis, DNA sequencing, cloning, transforming and culturing of yeast, western blotting, gel electrophoresis, flow cytometry and purification of histones from yeast. During my master thesis I studied whether the activity of innate immune cells was affected by Hepatitis C virus core proteins. During this project I worked with MACS magnetic beads isolation technique, Culturing and differentiation of purified monocytes into dendritic cells and macrophages, ELISA, FACS analysis, intracellular cytokine staining and RT-PCR. During my PhD studies I investigated mechanisms of sex ratio bias at genomic level using genome wide microarrays. During my future studies, I am interested to utilise my previous knowledge of immunology, molecular biology and genomics to understand the molecular basis of infectious diseases and interactions of microbes with immune system
