Biography

Prof. Gamal Ramadan Shebl Ramadan is currently working as Professor of Immunology in the Zoology Department, Faculty of Science, Ain Shams University. His general specialty includes Physiology, and Molecular and Cellular Immunology. He got his M.Sc. in Physiology from Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt (1995) and D.Sc from Hannover University, Hannover, Germany in Molecular Immunology with a very good grade through a four-year full scholarship sponsored by the Egyptian Administration of Mission (1997-2001). During this period he was a guest investigator at the Institute of Virology, Bremen University, Bremen, Germany (1997-1999) and the Department of Clinical Immunology, Hannover Medical School, Hannover, Germany (1999-2001). He worked as an Assistant Professor in Wisconsin Medical College, Blood and Marrow Transplantation Program, Milwaukee, WI, USA from March, 2003 to January, 2005. During this period he participated in many research work activities that added a lot to his experience, language and scientific thinking. He also worked as an Associated Professor in the Department of Biological Science, College of Science, King Faisal University from January, 2007 to July, 2012. He has published 26 in local and international scientific journals and he got many grants and awards from government, international congresses and committees. He is also a member of a number of scientific societies such as Egyptian Syndicate of Scientific Professions, Egyptian Society of Zoology, Egyptian-German Society of Zoology, and American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, Associate member of American Society of Haematology, Egyptian Society of Immunology, International Union of Immunologists, and Union of Arab Biologists. He is teaching most of Physiological and Immunological courses for students of Biology, Pre-dentistry and Pre-pharmacy and supervised 6 MSc and 7 PhD students thesis (in Physiology/Immunology program). He is serving as associate editor for International Research Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, Technical Editor of Research Journal of Allergy, member of editorial board in Journal of Pharmacy and Clinical Sciences, Journal of Medical and Allied Health, and Egyptian Journal of Experimental Biology.
