About

Dr Muideen teaches and researches in forensic science, environmental and analytical chemistry topics. He has a PhD in Analytical/Environmental Chemistry and Fellowship of Advance HE. He has experience leading several modules and laboratory sessions relating to forensic science, analytical and environmental chemistry such as forensic toxicology and drug analysis, instrumental analysis, food and drug analysis, environmental forensic (trace evidence analysis) and crime scene evaluation, evidence, analysis and interpretation and pollutants fingerprinting using various statistical tools at the undergraduate and PG level.

He is skilled in gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, spectrometry and higher education. He also teaches modules in food science, pharmacology and biomedical sciences. He also supervises several undergraduate and postgraduate research projects, helping students build a foundation in scientific methodology and critical thinking skills essential for careers in the sciences. He has particular interest in assessing the risk from human exposure to emerging contaminants and drugs in various matrices and motivated by the potential of his research to improve the quality of life and the environment for the present and future generations.

Career overview

He has previous taught at Tai Solarin University of Education in Nigeria and University of Birmingham. He has also worked in various capacities as a laboratory analyst and as an expert reviewer for various first quartile journals such as chemosphere, hazardous materials, ecological indicators etc. He is an editorial board member of Australian journal: Environmental Contamination: Causes and Solutions.

He is a commonwealth and PTDF scholar. He maintained strong affiliation with relevant professional bodies such as chartered society of forensic science, Royal Society of Chemistry and American Chemical Society, Chemical Society of Nigeria (CSN), Society for Environmental Toxicology and Pollution Mitigation (SETPOM).

Research

Environmental and analytical chemistry; toxicology and drug analysis, geochemistry of trace metals in the environment; radiological and pollution assessment; source identification and health risk assessment; contaminants of emerging concern and POPs.

The current research project is on drug analysis, environmental fate and biotransformation of Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and radionuclides in various environmental matrices.

External activities

He acts as an expert reviewer for various journal and editorial board member for editorial board member of Australian journal: Environmental Contamination: Causes and Solutions. He has won many local and international grant to support his research.
