Biography
Dr. Tarek completed his undergraduate studies from Faculty of pharmacy,
Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt. He then joined the department of
pharmaceutics and industrial pharmacy in 2003 as demonstrator and completed his
master within four years. After completing his master degree, Dr. Tarek felt
that he requires both more in-depth study and to get in touch with an
international school of pharmacy to be able to practice the pharmaceutical
science proficiently; therefore he decided to complete the requirements for one
of the Egyptian government scholars (channel system) where he passed the TOFEL
test, prepared his paper and documents and travelled to USA in 2008 where he
joined Texas A&M health science center (TX, USA) as a PhD visiting scholar.
During that period Dr. Tarek got an excellent knowledge in the development of
novel drug delivery (in situ gel and in situ microparticles), HPLC analysis for
both in vitro and in vivo study. After completing his study, he came back from
USA in 2010 where he did make his defense within two months and joined the
department of pharmaceutics and industrial pharmacy as lecturer in March 2010.
Research Interest
Nanoparticles including Nanospheres, Nanocapsules and Solid lipid Nanoparticles,topical formulation and the solid dispersion technique,novel controlling release technique (In situ gel and ISM systems) for the delivery of drugs (Haloperidol and Montelukast).
