Iliya Dauda Kwoji is a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM), Master of Science (MSc) in Veterinary Microbiology, and Ph.D. in Genetics.

My research interest is in Host-microbiome interactions and the use of probiotics to manipulate the gut microbiome. I am also interested in studying the effects of diets on the gut microbiome.

I use high-throughput 'multi-omics' techniques, including transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, to elucidate the mechanisms of cell-to-cell crosstalk between bacteria. This forms the core of my Ph.D. research. My goal is to use a system biology approach in the holistic understanding of the biological system for applications in translational science/medicine.
