Prof Ejikeme Mbajiorgu

Ejikeme Mbajiorgu is an anatomist and biomedical researcher whose work spans neuroanatomy, reproductive biology, metabolic disease, and comparative morphology. His scholarship centers on how systemic stressors—such as diabetes, alcohol exposure, antiretroviral therapy, and dietary factors—reshape organ structure and function. Through integrated histological, molecular, and behavioral approaches, his research bridges anatomy with translational toxicology and pathophysiology.

A major focus of his recent studies is the interaction between metabolic disorders and external agents on the hippocampus and male reproductive system. His work elucidates mechanisms involving oxidative stress, inflammatory signaling, apoptosis, androgen receptor dynamics, and insulin pathways, highlighting risks to neurogenesis, spermatogenesis, and tissue integrity. These contributions advance understanding of comorbidities affecting vulnerable populations.

Mbajiorgu has also contributed to comparative anatomical research and developmental biology, including detailed morphofunctional analyses in avian species and scholarly work on female pelvic embryology. In addition, his publications address antimicrobial use in animal production and alternative therapeutics, reflecting an interdisciplinary profile that connects anatomy, veterinary science, and public health.
