We @DrosLabUI are honoured & thrilled to receive Prof. K. O. Adebowale (FRSC), the Vice Chancellor, and Prof. P. O. Olapegba, DVC (Admin), University of Ibadan @UniIbadan in our labs today! It was an inspiring moment filled with exciting discussion on our ongoing projects.

Congratulations to the students that completed their Industrial Work Experience Scheme today @DrosLabUI. Your dedication has been acknowledged & we are eager to witness the application of the skills & knowledge you have acquired. We thank @DrosLabUI members for their support.

@DrosLabUI, we use #Drosophila to understand mechanisms by which certain #environmental contaminants predispose to diseases like #Neurodegenerative #diseases & #Cancer. By studying these interactions, we aim to gain insights that can inform prevention & therapy design concepts.

Many congratulations to the M.Sc. students on the successful defence of their dissertations today. Well done, Festus Oyeniyi, Clive Okonta, Ojo Oluwatimileyin, Faith Fatuase, Samuel Akano, and Raphael Oladapo. Best wishes from @DrosLabUI.

Many congratulations to Oluwatimileyin Rapheal Ojo @its_imit on the award as the Second-Best #Poster #Presenter at the #UCBR-8 #Conference. Poster Title: Rescue Role of #Rutin in a #Drosophila melanogaster Model of #Lead-Induced #Toxicity.

Congratulations to 4 BSc. students on the successful defence of their final-year projects today. Well done Sulaimon Seun Adewunmi, Ogo-Oluwa Ekanola, Zakariyau Qowiyah Adedoyin & Alonge Oluwatosin Deborah. We thank Prof @RossCagan for the flies they used & for the support always
