I work in the Department of Physiology, University of Ilorin. I obtained my Ph.D. at the same University and rose through the ranks to become a Professor as well as the chair of the Department (2019 to date). I specialize in neurophysiology, sensory neuroscience looking at pain transmission, and factors that could mitigate it. I have been involved in evaluating the effects of the rich West African Flora as used traditionally on the amelioration of pain in rodent models of acute and chronic pain as well as inflammation. I am also involved in modeling neuroinflammatory diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's. I am also involved in evaluating pain and inflammation in clinical settings with my collaborators. I am a member of many professional bodies such as the Physiological Society (UK), Society for Neuroscience, Society for Neuroscientists of Africa (SONA), and Neuroscience Society of Nigeria.
