PhD in mechanical and materials processing engineering.

Assistant Research Scientist in the Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials (NAM) Program at the Energy and Building Center (EBRC) - The Kuwait Institute For Scientific Research (KISR). Interested in: Nanotechnology & Nanomaterials, Renewable Energy, Green Hydrogen Energy, Fuel Cells.

I initially explored deeply into the research area of Candida infections and plant essential oils throughout my academic and professional journey. Starting at the Indian Institute of Integrative Medicine (IIIM), India, I examined the effects of chemically synthesized compounds and standard antifungals against Candida species during my Master's program. At Jamia Millia Islamia University (JMI), India, I extensively studied the impact of plant essential oils on the growth and virulence factors of different Candida species, completing my Ph.D. in 2014. My postdoctoral fellowship at Kuwait University (KU) centered on identifying potent plant-derived treatments for oral Candida infections, utilizing various methodologies and advanced microscopy techniques. After KU, I joined as a Research Consultant at the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR), where I continued exploring native desert plants for bioactive compounds. Across IIIM, JMI, KU, and KISR, I have developed strong research skills, adept at independent research work, project design, and grant proposal writing. I possess extensive experience in drafting experimental articles, reviews, abstracts, presentations, and posters, I now serve as a Research Specialist at Green Plains Consultants (GPC). Here, I apply my expertise in sustainable solutions for environmental and agricultural issues while furthering my research and project development skills.
