Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance in Nigerian hospital and community settings, including bacteria such as Klebsiella, E. coli, and Pseudomonas that are resistant to common antibiotics. Work also covers malaria, viral diseases like Zika and Lassa fever, and hospital infection control practices such as hand hygiene. Studies are largely clinical and public-health oriented, often based on hospital or field samples from Nigeria.
