Details of Teaching Experience at University Level I was employed on 9 April, 1997 as a Lecturer Grade II in the Department of Veterinary Public Health & Preventive Medicine where I have been teaching till date.

Postgraduate Supervision I have supported and supervised 12 Masters students in the area of Veterinary Public Health (MVPH), 2 PhD students and currently doing the same for 4 students on their PhD Theses. 3 (e) Administrative Experience I have had the privilege of serving the University at various levels since 1997 as: i. Departmental Representative, Faculty Field Trip 2003-2005 ii. Member, Departmental Finance Committee 2003-2005 iii. Sub-Dean (Clinics), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine 2005-2007 iv.

Research (a) Completed: (i) Molecular characterization of human and bovine tubercle bacilli in Ibadan, and evidence of zoonotic transmission (2001-2007). The early part of this research work established for the first time, the molecular epidemiological baseline of strains of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex causing tuberculosis in humans and cattle in Nigeria. Using spoligotyping, variable-number tandem-repeat analysis and deletion typing techniques, we were able to confirm that majority of tuberculosis disease in humans in Ibadan is caused by a single, closely related group of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. The study also showed that approximately 13% of the disease in humans is caused by strains of Mycobacterium africanum and M. bovis. This work resulted in several publications (papers 12, 15, 17, 20) and the training of a postgraduate student who is now a Lecturer 1 in the Department. Furthermore, through grants received from IDRC/ILRI Funded Project (2004-2006) and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur / University of Ibadan Re-entry Grant 2006, I was able to provide more insight into the epidemiology of bovine tuberculosis and the zoonotic transmission of BTB in Nigeria. This project culminated in the training of three postgraduate students (in the University of Ibadan, Othman Dan Fodiyo University, Sokoto and University of Pretoria, South Africa). The project also led to some publications (papers 22, 32, 36, 48 and 55). Overall, the results generated from these series of projects have significant implications for public health. (ii) Exploring the use of faecal samples in the diagnosis of tuberculosis in pediatric patients in Ibadan (2005-2007). Tuberculosis is a major cause of childhood morbidity and mortality in Nigeria. Diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis is a global challenge making early treatment a mirage. In this study, we investigated the stools of some children for the presence of Mycobacteria. Approximately 5% (9/192) of apparently well children had evidence of potentially serious tuberculosis infection. The results have been published (paper 30). (iii) Insight into the prevalence of tuberculosis in dental patients in Ibadan (20062007). Acquisition of TB in healthcare facilities is a well-recognized hazard for healthcare workers and patients. To determine the prevalence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection among dental patients and to assess dentists’ risk for exposure, we conducted a study among dental patients at a large tertiary hospital in Nigeria, a country where tuberculosis is endemic. Ten (13%) of 78 sputum samples obtained were positive for M. tuberculosis. The work has been published in the Journal of Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) (Cadmus, S.I.B., Okoje VN, Taiwo BO, van Soolingen D. (2010). Mycobacterium tuberculosis exposure for dentists, Ibadan, Nigeria. Journal of Emerging Infectious Diseases Vol. 16. No. 9, 1479-1481). 5 (b) In Progress: (i) Antituberculosis evaluation of 20 medical plants identified from the Southwestern Nigerian Ethnomedicine (University of Ibadan Multidisciplinary Senate Research Grant 2007). One the major objectives of my involvement in this study, is to explore the knowledge that I have acquired over the years in the area of TB and Mycobacteriology with other colleagues (from the Faculty of Pharmacy) in the University to find a cure for tuberculosis through the exploration of ethnomedicine. This is an ongoing project, and initial results indicate possibility of local medicinal plants that could serve as lead candidates for anti-tuberculosis. This project is also facilitating the training of 3 postgraduate students in the University. (ii) Diagnostic methods for the confirmation of tuberculous lymphadenitis in patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis in patients attending the Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) Clinic in the Department of Pathology, University College Hospital, Ibadan. This is an ongoing project to strengthen the diagnostic algorithm of patients with extra-pulmonary TB in conjunction with colleagues in the Department of Pathology, College of Medicine, University College Hospital, Ibadan. One of the goals of this project is to apply my research skills towards better patient care in human hospitals given the concept of “One Health”. Two major scientific papers have been published from this ongoing project (papers 15, 17). (iii) Prevalence study of MDR-TB in a local setting in Nigeria using the Nitrate Reductase Assay (NRA) and Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility (MODS) Assay (Collaborative study with the Northwestern University AIDS International Training & Research Programme, 2008 Fogarty Training Grant No. D43TW007995). This project sets out to show some of my active research interests in the area of TB Diagnostics. It is expected that the proper evaluation of these rapid diagnostic TB assays in local laboratories, will provide further scientific evidence for their ease of use or otherwise in settings like Nigeria. In carrying out this project, I also collaborated with a senior colleague in Department of Microbiology and this has resulted and helped in the training of a PhD student who is rounding up his Thesis. Through this research initiative, in 2010, the PhD candidate training on this project (Falodun, I.O.) was awarded a $10,000 grant from the African Doctoral Dissertation Research Fellowship (ADDRF). Furthermore, preliminary findings from this project have been presented at several international conferences including the Keystone Conference held in July, 2012 in Kampala, Uganda (Pattern of drug resistance in HIV-negative tuberculosis patients in Ibadan, Nigeria---Falodun, I., Ogunlade, O., Fagade, O., Adewole, I., Taiwo, B., Murphy, R., Cadmus, S). Another abstract (Pattern of drug resistance among tuberculosis patients with and without HIV infection in Ibadan, Nigeria--- Cadmus S, Falodun O, Ogunlade O, Fagade O, Adewole IF, van Soolingen, Dick., Taiwo BO, Murphy RL) from this project was also accepted for presentation at the 43rd Union World 6 Conference on Lung Health (a prestigious International Conference for Tuberculosis and Lung Disease) to be held in November, 2012 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. (iv) Epidemiology of brucellosis in different species of animals Nigeria (Collaborative study with the Brucellosis Unit of the Veterinary Laboratories Agency, UK). This project is actually a major attempt at re-awakening brucellosis (a disease of great economic and zoonotic importance) research in Nigeria after a lull in active work on the disease especially in the University of Ibadan. The approach involves active collaboration with the Brucellosis Unit of the Veterinary Laboratories Agency (UK), an OIE Center of Excellence in Brucellosis Research and other researchers from different Universities and institutions in Nigeria. To date, 6 postgraduate students (2 PhD, 4 Masters) have benefited or are still benefiting from this project in different Universities in Nigeria (University of Ibadan, Ahmadu Bello University, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta). In addition, 4 DVM students have also benefited from this project by carrying out their final year projects through facilities and reagents provided. Finally, I also provided community service through the University of Ibadan Veterinary Teaching Hospital by offering free brucellosis diagnosis to animals where such need arose.
