About me
Dr. Adara Damilola Bukunmi is a Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the Federal University of Technology and Environmental Sciences, Iyin-Ekiti, Nigeria. She holds a PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Abuja, Nigeria, and an MSc from the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), Ghana. Her research interests focus on mathematical modelling of infectious diseases, particularly malaria transmission, treatment interventions, and public health applications. She has published research articles and book chapters in mathematical and health-related fields and is committed to teaching, research, and applying mathematical tools to address real-world challenges.
Dr. Adara Damilola Bukunmi is a lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the Federal University of Technology and Environmental Sciences (FUTES), Iyin-Ekiti, Nigeria. She is an applied mathematician with research interests in mathematical modelling of infectious diseases, public health, and the application of quantitative methods to real-world health challenges.
Dr. Bukunmi obtained her PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Abuja, Nigeria, in 2025. She also holds a Master of Science (MSc) degree associated with the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), Ghana, where she received advanced training in mathematical sciences and was exposed to international scholars, tutors, and mentors whose influence contributed significantly to her development as a researcher and educator. She also has a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (PGDE), reflecting her interest and training in effective teaching and learning.
Her research focuses particularly on mathematical modelling of malaria and other infectious diseases, with interests in disease transmission dynamics, treatment interventions, preventive strategies, optimal control, and quantitative approaches to public health.
Dr. Adara has contributed to the scholarly literature through journal publications and a book chapter. Her publications include research on mathematical models of malaria treatment interventions and malaria transmission among vulnerable populations. She is passionate about mathematics education, academic development, mentorship, and the practical application of mathematics to societal challenges. She is particularly interested in developing mathematical and quantitative approaches that can support evidence-based decision-making in public health. She is also involved in the development of mathematics teaching materials and course resources for undergraduate students.
