Research Fellow, Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences
Meshach is a postdoctoral research fellow in the One Virology group at the Wolfson Centre for Virus Research. He graduated from the University of Maiduguri (Nigeria) with a doctor of veterinary medicine degree and then completed a masters in virology at the University of Ibadan (Nigeria). He then moved to the UK and completed a PhD in virology supervised by Prof Daly at the One Virology group, WCVR, University of Nottingham on intrinsic and innate responses to influenza viruses. Meshach, previously worked as a lecturer in viral immunology at the University of Maiduguri.
Meshach's research focuses on understanding the complex interactions between viruses and their host. At the core of Meshach's expertise lies his interest in comparatively understanding how viruses modulate the immune systems of different host species to establish infection. Also, his interest is expanding to the extensive use of different virology, molecular biology and immunological approaches to understand the development of adaptive immune responses to Flavivirus DNA based vaccines.
