Fouad Zahdeh
Fouad Zahdeh
Did an PhD at the lab, under the joint supervision of me and Prof. Moein Kanaan. Together with Prof. Ephrat Levy-Lahad, director of the Medical Genetics Unit at Shaare Zedek Medical Center, Fouad worked on detecting the genetic basis of Mendelian diseases. In addition, Fouad studied genetic features that trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, as well as patterns of codon usage bias. Currently, Fouad is bioinformatician at Medical Genetics Institute in Shaare Zedek Medical Center.
