College of Medicine, Department of Microbiology · University of Anbar
Research Interests
My research is focusing on the molecular biology, molecular cytogenetic, CRISPR, molecular genetics and Antimicrobial agents including mode of action, mechanisms of resistance on gene level.
Biography
The position is the president of the University of Anbar. My academic degree is a full professor in Medical Microbiology/Molecular biology. My area of research interest is the molecular diagnosis of infectious disease, and molecular cytogenetics including the detection of chromosomal abnormalities either numerical or structural aberrations in different diseases, Y chromosome microdeletion and genetic detection of AZF region of Infertile subjects. Further, antimicrobial activity in vitro and in vivo in addition to the mechanisms of resistance and the modern molecular genetic techniques to avoid it like phage therapy and CRISPR as genome editing technology.
