Joshua is an early-career neuroscientist. Trained in both human and veterinary anatomy, he holds a B.Tech in Anatomy from Ladoke Akintola University of Technology and an M.Sc. in Veterinary Anatomy (Neurobiology) from the University of Ibadan. He holds a professional leadership certification in Leadership and Management in Health from the University of Washington.
As a Research Fellow at the Drosophila Research and Training Centre, he studies the molecular roots of neurodegeneration, using fruit fly and rodent models alongside computational tools to understand how brain cells fail in diseases like Parkinson's. He has authored seven peer-reviewed publications and is a recipient of a handful of Trainee Grant and a Sigma Xi Associate Fellowship.
Beyond the lab, Joshua coordinates the Nigeria chapter of Black In Neuro, has served on UNESCO's Committee on the Ethics of Neurotechnology, and is passionate about bringing neuroscience to young people and the general public through science communication.
