Staff Profile
Michael Chukwudi Ezeani is a senior staff of Nnamdi Azikiwe University. Basically, a Biomedical Scientist. He is a faculty member and a Research Scientist in the Faculty of Basic Clinical Sciences. Dr. Ezeani MC holds Ph.D. in Cancer Immunology Nnamdi Azikiwe University and Post-Doctoral Certificate of Harvard Medical School, Harvard University Boston Massachusetts USA in High Impact Cancer Research (Oncology). He is also a Fellow of West African Postgraduate College of Medical Laboratory Science (WAPCMLS). He holds strong research interest in exogenous and endogenous influences in tumour/cancer development, in which case he has explored the roles of Immune Complexes in tumour/cancer development. He has suggested the need to separate antigens from antibodies during which he developed a solution which he tagged "Immune Solution". He opined that this Immune Solution is preferably used instead of serum in many immunological screenings including HIV, HBV, HCV during which window period could be experienced. Dr. Ezeani MC is lovely married with children.
