Islam Mohamed

I have known Islam for 10 years when he joined my lab in Fall of 2010 in the program in Clinical and Experimental Therapeutic, College of Pharmacy, University of Georgia As a teacher and a major advisor I got the chance to interact more with Islam Mohammed in several courses and I got to know him very well as an active, attentive and creative minded student in the class who finished all required course work with straight A. Islam is an avid reader who likes to comb literature and utilized his interest in obesity to develop his PhD project and completed his thesis with impressive list of publications (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=islam+Mohamed%2C+el-remessy). During that time, I worked closely with him to develop his project, technical and intellectual skills. Islam won several Travel awards to attend international Conferences, Best Oral presentation in UGA 5th Scientific Research Day and best graduate student presentation in the VA Research Day. Further, Islam’s work was supported by the prestigious predoctoral fellowship from American Heart Association , Greater South east affiliate (2012-2014). After successful completion of his Doctoral dissertation in my lab in 2014 , he has completed postcoctoral training joined the renowned Vascular Biologist, Dr. Charles Searle at Dept. of Medicine, Cardiology section, Emory University. In 2018, he was awarded the prestigious Travel awards to attend the Bi-annual meeting of the international Society of Eye Research (ISER) , where he presented part of his PhD studies in the meeting. In 2018, Islam continued his success journey and accepted a Faculty position at North California State University.
