N. PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT:
From my research on nosocomial infection, I have been able to design the functions and
the running of the laboratory aspects of clinical practice especially as it relates to
microbiology and microbial infection diagnosis, treatment and prevention in
hospitals and the community.
As an Infectious Diseases Specialist, I was responsible for designing the Infection
Control Program of the LAUTECH Teaching Hospitals in Osogbo and Ogbomoso to
minimize the prevalence and incidence of hospital acquired infections including
HIV/AIDS. This feat is translatable to other Teaching Hospitals in Nigeria and can form
the bedrock for the organization of National Infection Control Centre for Nigeria similar
to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States of America.
I am a member of the editorial board of four peer-review international journals and
one local journal, and a reviewer for over twenty local and international journals. I am
one of 13 contributory authors to an edited textbook of Medical Microbiology produced
locally for the training of undergraduate medical, nursing and biomedical science
students and postgraduate students in Medical Microbiology and related fields.
O. CURRENT RESEARCH ACTIVITIES:
1. Taiwo SS, Alli AOT, Fadeyi A, Samuel SO, Adegboro B, Enright MC and Bentley S.
Whole genome sequence analysis and evolutionary study of Nigerian isolates of
Staphylococcus aureus (Proposed collaborative work with Prof Mark Enright of Imperial
College, London and Dr Stephen Bentley of Pathogen Sequencing Unit, Genome
Campus, Sanger Institute, Hinxton, Cambridge, United Kingdom)
2. Alabi A, Taiwo SS, Traore HN, Adegnika AA and Frank M. A study of the
epidemiology and interaction of helminths and tuberculosis in Gabon and Nigeria
(Proposed work with researchers in Gabon and Prof Matthias Frank, Germany).
