Summary:

I got my PhD degree in Molecular Medicine. My project was under the title “Genetic polymorphisms and susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia in Yemeni subjects”.  I have received my master degree in 2009 from Sana’a University. My master study was about investigation of the plasma levels of lipocalin-2, adiponectin, IL-1β in type 2 DM and obesity, as well as the relationship between the various tested parameters. I completed my undergraduate education with distinction at Sana’a University in 1998 in medical laboratories. I have experience in clinical biochemistry, hematology, blood bank and microbiology laboratory work.
