Research Interest
| Subject | Description | Research Interest (Goal, Target Indicator) |
|---|---|---|
| Major research fields included Immunology (Monoclonal antibody), Multidrug Resistant Infections and Molecular Pathogenesis of E.coli, Staphylooccus aureus. | I am currently involved in research project related to Salmonella control on egg shell¸ hepatitis B genetic analysis from drug abusers, multi drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus in burn infection , strategies in reducing the burden of influenza in slums of Dhaka city, the growth of influenza in cell line and their control through antimicrobial agents and herbal extracts. The research output will benefit the people of our country. With the appropriate guidance and recommendation from our research the community will learn to love the benefits of microorganisms and also know to take everyday protective measures against pathogens.
