Currently, Dubai established Great Arab Minds which is the largest scientific movement in the Middle East to empower researchers. I am hoping to play a key role in this initiative and am grateful for this achievement as a step in that direction.

My appreciation goes out to the EEE department for its commitment to empowering women in research and developing us into leaders!
