Members listed on this page are one of our greatest assets who help us throughout the years. They are undergraduate students who help us doing some research while they are still pursuing their Bachelor degree in the Faculty of Pharmacy, Cairo University. We'll always be thankful to them especially they could take some of their time during studying to show their passion for science and research. Never the less their contributions have great impacts on many of the projects conducted by other members of the group. In return, although most of them are no longer working with us but we'll always consider them current members as they are always welcome to come back and work with us.

In the summer of 2024, the group recruited only three talented students who proved to be the most productive. They embarked on two fronts. First, work to characterize some drug targets identified by the 2023 team. Second, fully characterize a set of new antimicrobial agents against MRSA. The work was conducted under the joint supervision of Drs. Shahira ElBanna and Mark Abdelmassih

In the summer of 2023, the group recruited 10 active students passionate about science. They worked on screening the genome and proteome of the multidrug-resistant and highly virulent Acinetobacter baumannii strain AB5075 to identify the most promising drug targets. The identified targets served as a launching point for multiple projects currently underway by current group members.

Although she has not worked with us inside the lab, yet she is a great contributor to one of our major literature review projects. She is not only a great writer and text-mining expert, but she is a very passionate science artist.

The 2021 summer group was one of the most energetic groups we ever had. They started work very early and stay for extended time periods. They contributed to many of our experiments especially testing a synthetic chemical library for non-conventional antimicrobial activities. Also, a group of them participated in some in vivo experiments. They all worked under the great direct supervision of Dr. Hanzada T. Nour-el-din (middle of bottom row). The group included; Top row from right to left: Nardine Reda, Tony V. Zaki, Amr A. Taher, Yahia Essam, Mariam K. Mahmoud, and Silvia M. Wahib. Bottom row from right to left: Laila Amr, Sandy A. Eissa, Maria O. Fayez, and the fresh graduate Donia Salah.

However, we worked online with a couple of fresh graduates mining the literature about the formidable pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii and how it is spreading among populations in low-income countries. This work was translated into a nice review article published in 2021 in the journal "Antibiotics (Basel)".

The team of summer 2019 has worked very hard in collecting for us a valuable library of microbial isolates from all over the Egyptian environment. Later they isolated and indexed the microbial collection that was the seed for our current library, which we are screening repeatedly for metabolites of different biological activities. The team of this summer also included other members for whom we do not have photos including; Hadeer DaifAllah, Hossam Hazem, Nouran Reda, and Hager Wagih

On this summer, we suspended the program for training undergraduate students due to other overwhelming activities. However, only Nada Basel contributed to work with and contributed significantly to one of our studies. To get her due credit for her efforts, she got her name as middle author on the published manuscript.

The team of summer 2017 was a great team and contributed a lot to our ongoing research. They practiced both in silico and wet experiments. Their work was mainly supervised by both Dr. Attia and Dr. Noha Elhosseiny

This year team was very extended and included all members of the 2014-2015 team plus more. They worked on multiple projects geared towards how microbes interact together in the hope of finding moieties and targets that could serve the great purpose of fighting infections with deadly pathogens. Many of the members of this team are still students in the Faculty of Pharmacy, Cairo University, and they are set to work more with the group

The team of this year has worked very us with the group in the launching of an STDF-funded project. They have done one of the most critical and difficult steps in the proposed research. They mined the proteomes of several neonatal sepsis-causing bacterial species and identified key targets that could be developed into diagnostic markers. The members of this team are set to graduate in 2017.

The team of this year was a huge one and they worked hard with us on developing a rapid diagnostic kit for the detection of Group B Streptococcus infections. The work contributed significantly to a grant application to the "Saving Lives at Birth". Although the grant application was not funded, however, it was shortlisted and two members of the group were awarded a travel grant "Saving Lives at Birth Incubator Grant". All members of this team have graduated in 2014.

Norhan and Ramez were the first undergraduates who joined the group and they continue to work with us although they have already graduated in 2014; Norhan is currently a teaching assistant in the Department of Microbiology working on her Master's Degree while Ramez is shifting career to education and becoming an IGCSE math teacher. Part of Norhan and Ramez's work was presented later in the American Society for Microbiology general meeting in San Francisco, USA.
