Immunology and Anatomy and Physiology

I am conducting a course of Immunology in undergraduate and master level students of our Department. I also taking a course on Anatomy and Physiology for the undergraduate level students in Physical Education and Sport Science Department as a part time

Research
Major focus of the research is on the health effects of environmental chemicals, particularly the health effects of chronic exposure to environmental arsenic through both epidemiological and experimental approaches. Several PhD and more than 15 master level researches have been guided as a supervisor.
