I achieved honor degrees in both B.Sc. and M.Sc. in biological sciences from Jordan University in Amman, Jordan in 1985 and 1988, respectively. From 1988 and up to 2002, I worked in teaching and research in several Universities in Jordan and Qatar. In 2002, I joined Plant Sciences Department at McGill University, Canada where I obtained my PhD degree in Plant Sciences. During my PhD study, I awarded several travel grants as well as the best “Pest Management Research Graduate Student Award” in 2006 from The Canadian Society of Agronomy. I joined The Hashemite University, Zarqa since 2006 as Assistant Professor and I chaired the Department of Biology and Biotechnology for three years and promoted to Associate Professor in 2012. I moved to Qatar University since September 2013 as Associate Professor in the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences and from 2013 and up to September 2019, I appointed as a Graduate coordinator for the M.Sc. and PhD programs in the department. Since September 2019, I appointed as an Acting Head of the Department. In October 2020, I have been promoted to Full professor at the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences, Qatar University
In my PhD thesis research, I worked on the interactions of ecological factors with weed biocontrol project in Professor Alan Watson lab. I was able to publish six original articles from my thesis work in highly recognized journals. As I moved to Jordan in 2006 and worked in the Hashemite University, which is located in an arid land environment and weeds, are not a highlighted field for research. I decided to look at my expertise in other fields so I established two major research areas, one in plant allelopathy and the other on aerobiology (air-borne fungal spores and pollen grains) and again I was able to publish my research outcome in highly recognized journals in the assigned field of research. In 2013, I moved to department of biological and environmental sciences at Qatar University. Again, I faced a new challenge, as the priority of research in Qatar is more about environment pollutants, wastewater, water and food security and biodiversity with good opportunities to supervise graduate student research. Therefore, I joined multidisciplinary research projects about wastewater use and treatment, phyto- and bio-remediation of heavy metal pollutants in soil and wastewater and aerobiology. Recently I established new research projects about Plant microbial interactions (endophytes, mycorrhizae and rhizobacteria) for the sake of enhancing crop plant growth.
