Field/Discipline
I am a second-year PhD student who joined Dr. Flavia Sousa’s laboratory in July 2023. It has been an absolute pleasure to move countries as part of her laboratory. During the PhD journey, we are focusing on gene and protein delivery to develop nanovaccines to prevent the recurrence of Glioblastoma.
A brief introduction of myself, I obtained my Master’s degree in Drug Delivery of Nanomedicine as part of the Erasmus Mundus joint master degree (EMJMD) in 2022, where I did an internship for 3-months in gene delivery at the University of Paris and a thesis internship for 6-months in protein delivery in i3s institute in University of Porto. In addition, I got my Bachelor’s degree in Science of Pharmacy from Jordan University of Science and Technology in 2018. Before starting the academic journey, I worked in both a research laboratory and the community pharmacy to explore the pharmacy field, and my curiosity in nanomedicine guided me happily. Also, after my master’s and before my PhD, I worked for a short time in the industry in the field of developing vaccines, and it encouraged me to continue my academic journey.

The PhD journey is not only about science in a closed laboratory, but also I am joining some scientific meetings from time to time; conferences, workshops, and seminars. I am also keen to know if I will reach other goals I set besides pursuing the degree, which is to improve my tennis and sewing skills and, hopefully, improve my leadership skills.
