Research Intrest

1.Drug resistance mechanisms in malaria and the role of the Plasmodium falciparum Chloroquine Resistance Transporter (or PfCRT), and PfMDR1 and PfABCG as mediator of drug resistance to anti-malarial drugs 2.Understanding the molecular mechanism of collateral sensitivity in drug resistant cancer cells to provide the first effective cancer treatment 3.Cellular pathway mapping and protein interactions using peptide scanning approach to identify and study protein-protein interactions of the human ABC transporters’ Interactome.
