ABOUT ME

         I am an ambitious Postdoctoral Fellow at Alabama Fish Farming Center; School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences at Auburn University, USA, and a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) at the Department of Veterinary Hygiene and Management, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Cairo University, Egypt. I earned a Master's degree from Auburn University in Statistics, another Master's degree in Veterinary Sciences, from Cairo University, and a Ph.D. degree in Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences from Auburn University, USA.

 

       The focus of my dissertation was the impact of aeration and turbidity on water temperature, thermal stratification, and evaporation rate in aquaculture ponds. I also study the effect of bottom water temperature on shrimp performance in inland culture. In addition, I test different aerators for their oxygen transfer efficiency.
