Ph.D. Candidate & Visiting Researcher

Background:

I am a teaching assistant of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University. I joined the Dordick group in May 2024 on a one-year scholarship as part of my joint Ph.D. program. My academic journey started when I decided to be a biochemist, as Biochemistry is my favorite way of understanding any biological phenomena. Moreover, my passion for mathematics extended my interest to statistics where R programming became one of my solid skills. My previous research experience varied between Molecular biology and Bioinformatics where I have developed and validated a robust method (f0%) for analyzing qPCR results.  

Education:

2021, M.V.Sc., (Biochemistry and Chemistry of Nutrition), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University.

2017, B.V.M.Sc., Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University with excellence.

Research Interest:

Currently, my Ph.D. research focuses on Nanobiotechnology. I am developing nanocarriers for anti-hepatic fibrosis medications using natural non-toxic materials. These nanocarriers are being tested for the release kinetics of the medication along with their in vitro capabilities . In a previous step in my Ph.D., I optimized and used an acrylic acid-based polymer to purify cationic proteins using batch chromatography.
