BIOGRAPHY

Raghda Fouda, a specialist in pathology and laboratory medicine who graduated from the school of medicine, Cairo University, and completed a Ph.D. degree in clinical pathology and laboratory medicine with diagnostic immunohematology and transfusion medicine as a major. She have ten-year laboratory experience during which she developed skills in a wide range of laboratory techniques including bone marrow pathology, molecular studies, in situ hybridization and Flow cytometry as well as blood banking and stem cell transplantation. She has interest in immunology and hematology research as well as regenerative medicine and stem cell research. She have a number of publication in the field of immune-hematology, transfusion medicine, hematological disorders, inflammation and obesity and their effect on number of body system with high concern on vascular endothelium and cardiologic complication and recently led a research team concerned with COVID19 pathogenesis and immune response. Currently, she have joined Stem Cell Research Center in University of California Irvine, working on the development of a humanized rat model for the cause of treatment retinal degeneration using stem cell therapy.
