Pharmaceutical researcher at King Saud University analyzing neuroscience data and contributing to published research.
What I'm looking for
At King Saud University, I plan and conduct behavioral neuroscience research, including projects on autism spectrum disorder and food-related behavior. I analyze experimental data using GraphPad Prism and public gene-expression datasets, and contribute to manuscripts.
As a Strategy Consultant with Saudi National Institute of Health / Arrab Consulting Company, I supported healthcare strategy and mental-health research prioritization through benchmarking, evidence review, and stakeholder workshops. I also helped define initiative scopes, KPIs, budgets, timelines, and risk-mitigation approaches.
My background includes pharmaceutical quality-control testing at The Stability Laboratory, Riyadh, and clinical pharmacy and pharmaceutical internships. I hold a Pharm.D. and a Ph.D. in Medical Sciences (Neurology), and I’m interested in data analysis, scientific and medical information, medical writing, and pharmaceutical marketing support.
