I grew up in a small village in Yemen. After high school, I studied Physics and graduated with a bachelor’s (BSc) degree in physics from Cairo University (Egypt) in 2004 and then worked for the National Atomic Energy Commission (Sana'a-Yemen) in 2005. I got my Master (MSc) and PhD in Theoretical Nuclear Physics from Cairo University (Egypt) in 2009 and 2014, respectively, which funded from the Yemeni Ministry of Higher Education scholarship. Since 2010, I am working at Taiz University (Yemen). In addition, I have worked at many universities in Yemen in 2015-2018. After that, Philadelphia University (Jordan) hosted my fellowship awarded from the Institute of International Education's Scholar Rescue Fund (IIE-SRF). In 2020-2022, I was a researcher at Heavy Ion Laboratory, University of Warsaw (Poland) via the Ulam-program that was funded by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA). Currently, I am a research fellow at the Nuclear Physics Group, Department of Physics and Astronomy, the University of Manchester (UK), funded by the Council for At-Risk Academics (Cara). My research interests are focused on deepening our understanding of nuclear reaction theories. I am interested in scattering, breakup, and reactions of exotic nuclei. In addition, I am working on the energy and mass dependencies of the microscopic optical and dynamical potentials.
