Elijah Atta Manu
The researcher focuses on the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer across multiple domains: analyzing bcl-2 levels related to p53 and MDM2, examining glycosylation factors like ENaC, exploring histopathological characteristics, and integrating AI for cancer detection.
Faculty Biography
I obtained a First Class (Honours) in Biological Sciences from the Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology, KNUST in 2016. I had my National Service as a Teaching Assistant in the Department of Physiology, KNUST School of Medicine and Dentistry from September, 2016 to August, 2017. Upon comletion of National Service, I enrolled in the masters programme run by the Department of Physiology, and graduated with a Master of Philosophy in Human Phyiology in 2020. While studying for the MPhil, i served in the Graduate Students' Association Ghana -KNUST's (GRASAG-KNUST) Senate as a Senate representative for the Department of Physiology. I also served as the College of Health Science representative on the GRASAG research committee. I was appointed as an Assistant Leturer in the Department of Physiology in August 2020, and have served in this capacity till date. In this role, I offer lectures in various aspects of human physiology to undergraduate students in the School of Medicine and Dentistry, Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences and Faculty of Allied Health Sciences.
