About me
I am a veterinary pharmacologist and Associate Professor at the Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Nyala, Sudan, and currently a guest scientist at Freie Universität Berlin, Germany. My research focuses on the control of parasitic diseases in ruminants, particularly on the detection and mechanisms of anthelmintic resistance.
I am honoured to be a member of AGYA, which marks an important step in my scientific career. AGYA provides a valuable platform for interdisciplinary and intercultural collaboration, strengthening the visibility and impact of my research within both the German and Arab scientific communities.
Through AGYA, I aim to promote science diplomacy and contribute to collaborative, high-impact research with my fellow AGYA members and alumni
