Dr. Abuchi Elebo is a highly driven analytical chemist and interdisciplinary researcher whose work bridges environmental science, materials chemistry, and data-driven modeling. Born on 24 July 1994 in Kaduna State, Nigeria, he completed his B.Sc. in Industrial Chemistry and subsequently earned his M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Over the years, he has amassed significant experience across academia and education, serving as a part-time lecturer at ABU, a senior education officer with the Kaduna State Universal Basic Education Board, and a laboratory instructor and research assistant in high-impact laboratories. His technical expertise spans chromatography (HPLC, GC, TLC), spectroscopic techniques (IR, NMR, UV-Vis, AAS, ICP-MS), and mass spectrometry, which he couples with modern statistical methods such as response-surface methodology and artificial intelligence to design and validate experimental protocols. He has published on corrosion inhibition using expired drugs, green nanoparticle synthesis, and biosorption from plant materials, among other topics, in high-quality peer-reviewed journals. His scientific contributions are quantified by an h-index of 3, demonstrating that at least that many of his papers have each received a comparable number of citations-an accepted metric of both productivity and impact in academia. Dr. Elebo is a member of the Chemical Society of Nigeria, the American Society for Microbiology, and holds professional teaching certification from the Teacher Registration Council of Nigeria. Alongside his research, he is passionate about teaching, mentorship, and community service, with prior voluntary engagement in secondary education during his NYSC service. His growing body of work reflects a consistent commitment to scientific excellence, capacity building, and sustainable solutions to environmental pollution leveraging both experimental and computational strategies..
