Bio
Mahmoud graduated with a Bachelor of Medical Science (Advanced) majoring in Anatomy and Physiology from Western Sydney University. He was consistently listed on the School of Science and Health Dean's Merit List for three consecutive years, placing him in the top 10% of his cohort.
Mahmoud has completed three research projects throughout his undergraduate degree and was later awarded a Summer Research Scholarship at NICM Health Research Institute. The success of this project led to his employment as a Research Assistant across multiple research teams at NICM, School of Nursing and Midwifery, and the School of Science and Health. Due to his reputation as a conscientious researcher, Mahmoud is now employed as a Clinical Trial Officer managing several clinical projects as well as a Clinical Trial Monitor.
