My research interests focus on Quality Assurance of Herbal Medicines, Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Delivery etc.

1.   Elemental Profiling of Herbal Medicines

2.   Mycotoxin contamination of herbal medicines

3.   Pharmaceutical Waste in the Environment

4.   Drug Delivery for Neglected Tropical Diseases
