Biography

Dr. Abdulrazak Baba Ibrahim is currently working as Lecturer of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in the Department of Biochemistry in Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria. He holds a Doctorate degree from the Universidade de Brasilia, Brazil, where he pioneered the use of Transgenic and RNA Interference Technology for the control of insects using lettuce and Soybean in EMBRAPA Center for Genetic Resources and Biotechnology. He has served in many institutions in Africa and South America as an Agricultural Biotechnologist, from where he gained experience and skills in multidimensional approach to scientific capacity and institutional evolution of developing countries. He is also involved in a number of national and international projects on Agricultural Biotechnology. He also attended number of workshops, conferences and seminars. He has published 16 research articles in journals contributed as author/co-author. Dr. Abdulrazak received honors includes Best Graduating Student in Biochemistry, Bayero University Kano, Brazilian Fellowship for Postgraduate Studies from CAPES, and Patent Application for the control of whitefly using RNAi technology, EMBRAPA, UnB, Brazil.
