Assoc. Prof. Pathology, Faculty Vet. Medicine
HZJG Labs Karachi

After my graduation (2000) from Univ. Agric. Faisalabad, I was recruited as house officer (2001-2002) by L&DD Punjab ( and I worked as a consultant veterinary doctor. Thereafter, I rejoined UAF ( for post-graduation (2002) and worked as research fellow in Department of Pathology. Upon selection by Higher Education Commission ( in a competition for PhD Merit Scholarship, I started working as a doctoral research fellow and a pathologist at Faisalabad. In recognition of my efforts, UAF conferred PhD on me in 2010 and I joined University of Sargodha as PhD Faculty and Assistant Professor of Pathology in 2011 and thereafter in Baqai Medical University in 2015 as AP. Recently I am working as Chief Scientist in Karachi.
