معرفی
Dr. Adaoha Ihekwaba is a Lecturer in Biosciences at the CEES School of Science. She has over twelve years of research and teaching experience in biomedicine, focusing on systems biology and computational modeling. Her research interests include dynamic modeling of DNA repair pathways, immune regulatory pathways, and predictive microbiology of spores such as Bacillus subtilis and Clostridium botulinum. She also addresses public health challenges and leads the AgriFoodAID project, educating rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa on food security. Her work aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals targeting poverty alleviation and sustainable agriculture.
Notable research contributions include studies on NF-κB signaling dynamics (2004), computational models of toxin production in Clostridium botulinum (2016), and chaotic dynamics in bacterial sporulation networks (2016). These publications highlight her expertise in systems biology and microbial systems.
Dr. Ihekwaba actively collaborates internationally and publishes in high-impact journals like Science and PLoS Computational Biology. She is currently accepting PhD students in her research areas.
