Department of Health Sciences -CUSIT

I am currently serving as a Lecturer at the Department of Pharmacy, City University of Science and Information Technology, Peshawar, Pakistan, where I am actively engaged in teaching. My research interest areas in Gero science, anti-aging, regenerative medicine, neuropharmacology. 

I am deeply interested in aging pharmacology and targeted molecular therapeutics. My proposed PhD research, titled “Dual Inhibition of mTOR and MAPK Signaling Using Rapamycin and Trametinib: Impact on Genomic Stability and Functional Lifespan in Genetically Heterogeneous Mice”, focuses on evaluating the synergistic anti-aging potential of rapamycin and trametinib through modulation of mTOR and MAPK pathways. The study aims to investigate not only lifespan extension but also functional healthspan, genomic stability, and sex-dependent therapeutic responses. This project aligns with the growing global interest in translational Geroscience and precision pharmacology
