Post-doctoral fellows

Dr. Olotu, Fisayo

olotufisayo@gmail.com

His research focuses on the investigation of biomolecules in disease vs non-disease models using structural bioinformatics methods, ligand chemistry and dynamics (structure-activity relationship), and the implementation of drug discovery pipelines for efficient hit-to-lead selection.

Dr. Sanyanga, T. Allan

t.sanyanga@ru.ac.za

His work involves bioinformatics application and tool development, and database creation for easier and more efficient data analysis through the implementation of ReactJS, Node and Django frameworks.

Dr. Veldman, Wayde

wamiveld@gmail.com

Wayde computationally researches the structure, function, and dynamics of enzymes. His areas of interest include pharmacogenomics, protein evolution, and network biology.

Dr. Muronzi, Tendai

muronzitendai@hotmail.com

Tendai specialises in drug discovery and protein-protein interactions, focusing on elucidating pathogenicity and targeting neglected tropical diseases. Her structural bioinformatics research interests also encompass mutational analysis, homology modelling, and protein network analysis.


Dr. Okeke, Chiamaka Jessica

okekechiamaka39@gmail.com

Chiamaka specializes in mutation analysis with a focus on understanding their impact on protein structure and function and their association with globally significant diseases. Her research interests span mutation analysis, drug discovery and exploring protein networks.
