Research Activity with UnderGraduate Students

1) Medical and Pharmacy Students at JU are engaged in hands-on research activities

Under the supervision of Dr. Lina and research Assistant Maha, medical students; (Yousef Zayed, Qais, Leen Alhadidi) and Pharmacy students (Moa'ath Khadra, Lama AlTakrori) are engaged in hands-on research activities to deepen their understanding of bioanalysis and biomarker discovery. These activities include performing SDS-PAGE for protein separation, metabolite extraction and protein depletion. Students use techniques such as 1D gel electrophoresis, biphasic liquid extraction and biochemical assays. This practical research experience not only enhances their technical skills but also fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
