Samia S. Messeha is working at Florida A& M University; Associate Professor (2022-current),
Research Mentor (2013-current), and Adjunct faculty (2004-2007). She has experience
in teaching both graduate and undergraduate students. Also, she has a public health
and environmental toxicology background. She is expertise in high-throughput screening
of naturally occurring bioactive compounds and phytopharmacology. In her research,
she is focusing on cellular and molecular cancer biology, so she used different methodologies,
including chromatography, genomics, whole transcriptome microarray, miRNA, imaging,
immunofluorescence, and enzyme study, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration. During her
tenure, she published many articles and attended conference in cancer biology and
drug discovery. She wrote a chapter in (Flavonoids and Anti-Aging: Flavonoids Activation
of Nrf2 and Osteoporosis). She arranges training sessions for undergraduate and graduate
students since she has skills in managing the RCMI facilities, including cytokine,
PCR, and western blot. In my research, she is collaborating with different sector
of scientists, including, RCMI team, different colleges at FAMU, and external collaboration,
in addition to international collaboration.
