About
Iam energetic, persistent worker who has developed a mature, responsible way to fulfil most of the job positions. As a graduate with Pharmacy bachelor’s degree, and three years of master’s in Pharmaceutical Technology. My master project was based on developing a new system to deliver the subcutaneous proteins in an oral form; the main goal was to reduce the injections suffers for diabetic people.
I’m an excellent worker with others to achieve as much as I can on time. In my PhD at University of Liverpool I have synthesised more than 100 analogues of the peptide in muti mechanisms in addition to learning different purification aspects, i always say peptide synthesis is an art. I leant how to use HPLC, troubleshooting, validate and devepoe methods.
Moreover, I am very good in using the Mass spectroscopy, and NMR.

Education
*2019-2021 PhD Degree in Molecular biology/Life science, pharmacology department University of Liverpool
Foundation Building, Brownlow Hill, Liverpool, L69 7ZX
Thesis title
Synthesis and structure activity relationship of teixobactin analogue.
Aim
Design and development of potent synthetic antimicrobial peptides against multi-drug resistant pathogens.
Various analogues of teixobactin were synthesised for the development of more potent analogue of teixobactin through detailed investigation of structure-activity relationship (SAR) study.

Dissertation tile
ORAL DELIVARY OF LIRAGLUTIDE USING CHITOSAN
Aim
- Oral delivery of Liraglutide peptide is compromised due to its degradation in the gastrointestinal system.
- Develop an oral delivery system for Liraglutide, to overcome the degradation of the peptide and enhance its bioavailability. The developed system is W/O microemulsion of Nanoparticles. Polyelectrolyte complex was prepared using low molecular weight chitosan and hydroxyl propel beta-cyclodextrin. Liraglutide LMWC and HP-βCD were prepared at different ratios.
