PHD in liver transplantation through stem cells

Al Mazrouei received her bachelor's and master's degree in the field of genes and cell biology from the UAE University. She worked in the Department of DNA in the Criminal Department of Abu Dhabi Police and completed her career through her work at Zayed Military Hospital and her contribution to the establishment of the first DNA database in the UAE. Her insistence that she put her mark on the gene map was why she completed a doctoral study in stem cell transplantation at King's College London, the world's first university to use stem cells for liver transplantation.
Al Mazrouei aspires to establish a specialized stem cell treatment center in the UAE, to establish vital stem cell banks and to establish a database for those interested in donating bone marrow stem cells. "Many patients need bone marrow donors, especially thalassemia and cancer patients Blood and are still waiting for identical donors. "
