ABDELHALIM ELSHAWADFY CAREER PATH “I never get bored of being a medical professional, but I always enjoy the digital marketing arena”
My Research Journey in Microbiology and Molecular Biology
By the beginning of 2012 I offered a DVM job from the AHRI, ARC, Egypt as one of the top 20 graduates from the faculty of veterinary medicine back in 2003. I accepted the offer and officially received my job duties in March 15, 2012. In order to join the researcher committee of the AHRI institute, I applied for a Master’s degree at Benha University, Department of Microbiolog. For more, kinldy go to ww.DrHalim.com
