IRFAN SHAMA,
MSc, PhD in Organic Chemistry
 
I received M.Sc. degree in Organic Chemistry, from University of Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan (2000) and Ph.D. also in Organic Chemistry from the H.E.J. Research Institute of Chemistry, University of Karachi, Pakistan in 2004.
 
I am working as a post-doctorate research fellow in Dr. Crooks group and my current research focuses on to develop a new drugs that are bone-targeted and that have an anabolic effect (is the ability to stimulate bone growth) on bone. May be extremely useful for medical treatment of Osteoporosis or for acceleration of fracture healing. In addition, I also worked on human plasma to study the toxicological effect of some metabolite that assumed as a neurotoxic agent.
