introduction/brief CV
I am an associate professor at the Department of Biochemistry, King Saud University, where I teach and do research on protein folding and engineering. My research focuses on developing new methods to design and engineer proteins with desired functions. I am also interested in understanding the fundamental principles of protein folding and how they can be used to develop new therapeutic strategies.
I am passionate about teaching and mentoring students. I believe that protein folding and engineering is a rapidly growing field with the potential to revolutionize many areas of science and medicine. I am committed to training the next generation of scientists who will be at the forefront of this exciting field.
On this website, you will find information about my research, teaching, and publications. I also regularly update the site with news and events related to protein folding and engineering. I hope you find this website informative and useful.
If you have any questions or would like to learn more about my work, please do not hesitate to contact me.
