Ola Hussein, Dima Kawas and Licia Shamoun, 3rd year pharmacy students, won the third place at the 3rd GCC Pharma Congress recently held in Dubai for their poster entitled “Improving Patient Care Through the Discovery of Novel Natural Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors with Potential Medicinal Value for Neurodegenerative Disorders”.
The students were supervised by QU director of Quality Assurance Dr Sherief Khalifa, CPH associate professor of medicinal chemistry Dr Ashraf Khalil, and QU College of Arts and Sciences associate professor at the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences Dr Talaat Youssef.
CPH dean Dr Mohammad Diab stated that research is an important component of the National Health Strategy and CPH is committed to ensuring our students are equipped with the necessary tools and resources to thrive as researchers, both as students and in their future careers. “We are always proud to see our students compete and win in front of such prestigious scientific audiences, and these international conferences offer our students another platform to showcase their talents.”
