Microbiologist Specializing in Laboratory Research, Microscopy, and Bioinformatics Integration, with 10+year of exp

Profile Summary

I am a passionate and dedicated microbiologist with a strong academic foundation and hands-on experience in microbiology research. My expertise spans a range of laboratory techniques, including isolating, culturing, and microscopy methods. I am self-motivated, with a problem-solving mindset, and I excel in collaborative environments. I possess excellent communication skills and am committed to staying updated on the latest advancements in both microbiology and bioinformatics. Skills and Expertise I have a strong background in microbiological techniques such as microscopy, culturing techniques, and biochemical assays. My proficiency extends to molecular biology techniques, microbial genetics, and microbiological assays, allowing me to conduct high-quality research. I am skilled in using various laboratory tools, including microscopes, incubators, autoclaves, PCR machines, and spectrophotometers. Additionally, I have experience with data analysis and quality control, ensuring that my research outcomes are accurate and reliable. Research Experience At the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of FUNAAB, I have contributed to several research projects. I assisted final-year undergraduate and master’s students in microbiology research, focusing on the antimicrobial activity of Vernonia amygdalina against Salmonella isolated from household cockroaches. I also participated in antibacterial susceptibility testing and the isolation of Staphylococcus aureus from a pus sample of a West African dwarf sheep suffering from mastitis. My work in performing PCV (packed cell volume) tests and other laboratory procedures has enhanced my research capabilities and contributed to comprehensive data collection and analysis. Professional Experience During my industrial training at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, FUNAAB, I gained practical experience in veterinary medicine and healthcare practices. I was responsible for educating other internship students under the supervision of a senior researcher, which fostered my teamwork and leadership abilities. My adaptability and willingness to learn in diverse professional settings have contributed to my well-rounded skill set. Education I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) in Microbiology at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), Ogun State, Nigeria. My academic performance has been consistently strong, with a CGPA of 4.38/5.0 in my third academic year. I also completed a Cambridge Advanced Level program at the University of Lagos, where I studied A-Level Microbiology. Teaching and Mentoring Experience I have experience teaching Mathematics and Biology at Kid’s For Christ Primary and Secondary School, where I mentored students in preparation for internal and external examinations, including BECE, WACE, and GCE. My role involved designing assignments, homework, and assessments, ensuring fair allocation and grading, and contributing to implementing school policies and regulations. Publications I have co-authored several publications, including: Afolabi, C.O., Adekunle, J.D. (2023). Isolation of Salmonella from Cockroaches Using Pawpaw Leaf Extract to Determine Its Antimicrobial Susceptibility. Afolabi, C.O., Adekunle, J.D. (2024). A Case of Mastitis Caused by Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from a Pus Sample in a West African Dwarf Sheep. ResearchGate, DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.35587.68644. Vocational and Leadership Experience In addition to my scientific expertise, I have gained vocational skills in home essential management, including the production of laundry soap, liquid soap, disinfectants, and hair cream. I have also been involved in event management, catering, and decoration. As a leader, I served as the Assembly Prefect at Christfield Comprehensive College, where I ensured the seamless execution of activities and provided guidance and mentorship to my peers.
