AAUP Participates in an International Scientific Cooperation in which a New Gene Related to Brain Development and Genetic Disorders in Humans is Discovered

A joint study conducted by scientists from the Faculty of Medicine at the Arab American University (Jenin, Palestine), the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Exeter, UK, and Children's National Hospital (Columbus, USA) discovered that mutations in a gene that is responsible for a range of processes which are Vital for the formation of neurons and their access to the correct place in the embryonic stages cause a well-defined developmental disorder that include a distinctive appearance of the face, a small size of the head, a change in the surface of the brain, also known as lis

The scientific work, published in the American Journal of Human Genetics, describes the clinical outcomes of seven patients from five different families, all with mutations in the gene called calmodulin-regulated spectrin-associated protein 1 (CAMSAP1) which causes this rare genetic disease. The genetic alterations in CAMSAP1 lead to abnormalities in neuronal structural proteins, which have an important role in regulating neuronal division and movement during brain development.

Two Researchers from the University Discover a method to Diagnose Disorders and Skin Diseases Using Millimeter Wave Sensors

Two researchers from the Arab American University have come up with an innovative method for non-invasive diagnosis of skin diseases and disorders without the need for healthcare professionals or a medical clinic.

This study is considered the first of its kind. The innovative method of the two researchers from the Arab American University, Dr. Amani Owda, Head of the Department of Engineering, Natural, and Technological Sciences at the Faculty of Graduate Studies, and co-researcher Dr. Majdi Owda, Dean of Faculty of Data Science, is based on diagnosis by measuring millimeter waves that emerge from human skin and produce invisible signatures that contribute to inferring the health of the skin.

Two Academicians from the University Win the “Arab American University Award for Excellence in Scientific Research for 2022”

Two academics from the Arab American University, Prof. Dr. Atef Qasrawi, and Prof. Dr. Hazem Khanfar, won the "Arab American University Award for Excellence in Scientific Research for 2022". The names of the winners of this award for the current year were announced by the Deanship of Scientific Research at the university.

The Dean of Scientific Research at the Arab American University, Prof. Dr. Mohammed Awad, said that researchers from Palestinian universities competed for the award. They presented scientific research in the fields of natural Sciences, engineering and technological sciences, medical and health sciences, and social and human sciences. He explained that after examining the nomination applications for the award and evaluating them from a specialized committee, it was decided that two papers from each category would win.
