Roles
After an academic career spanning more than 30 years in university teaching at Sebha University, where I held the position of Senior Lecturer, I served as the Head of the Department of Botany for two different terms. I also founded the Microbiology Department and chaired it from its inception in 2017 until 2020 at the Faculty of Science, Sebha University. Currently, I work as a full-time professor in the Department of Botany at the Faculty of Science, University of Tripoli, Libya. My focus is on teaching and scientific research.
I teach microbiology in its various branches and supervise several master's theses for graduate students. In addition to teaching, I am an active researcher in various scientific fields.
Furthermore, I contribute to the editorial board of the "International Journal of Science", where I serve as an active member.
