Current Academic Role & Responsibilities
I am actively involved in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, focusing on building strong conceptual foundations in Pathophysiology, Pharmacotherapeutics and Research Methodology related subjects. My lectures and tutorials are designed to integrate theory with practical applications, encouraging students to develop analytical and problem‑solving skills. In addition to teaching, I mentor M.Pharm and PharmD students in their project work.
This includes guiding them through research design, methodology, data analysis, interpretation, and scientific writing, while fostering independence and professional communication. I also supervise PhD scholars, supporting them in advanced research, publication, and adherence to scientific rigor. Through these combined roles, I contribute to student development across multiple levels and to the advancement of pharmaceutical education and research.
