Summary: 

Since the appointment in the College of Medicine and Health Sciences as a teaching assistant in 1990 until today, we have undertaken the education and rehabilitation responsibilities for medical sciences students, since the general/ clinical pharmacology course is considered one of the basic requirements for medical sciences specializations.  During six years, 1995-2000, we obtained a master’s and doctorate in clinical pharmacology from the United Kingdom, then another stage of giving began, from December 2000, represented by lectures, research  supervision for undergraduate and master’s students, and then participating in many research discussions (internal/ external) and contribute to writing and publishing, during these years also, we contributed to many scientific activities within the college and attended training courses for faculty members. In the last fifteen years, we have participated in filling the deficit of Yemeni members in many public and privet universities.
