Mohamed Fouad Radwan Farghaly

 Professor

Profile

Dr. Mohamed Fouad Radwan is a Professor of Medicinal Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy - King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah. He studied his M. Sci. in Egypt in the field of Medicinal Chemistry. He studied his Ph.D. in Japan about Highly Stereoselective deuteration of Nucleosides as a novel methodology (Tokyo, Japan). Dr. Mohamed joins other three staff members in constructing a new college of pharmacy for Al-Azhar University in Assiut branch including buildings, labs, library, devises and all courses. He started research projects and supervised two master degrees. He delivered to Faculty of Pharmacy, El-Minia University and start establishes the Pharmaceutical Chemistry department (including organic and medicinal chemistry). Beside his academic work in constructing the department and college libraries, accreditations project and education development center, he start the research projects in the department through the synthesis of new medicinal compounds using different synthetic techniques and testing the biological activity of these compound through his own research work and through his supervision for master and doctor degrees. He have a good experience in ragioselective synthesis of biologically active drugs, drug delivery systems, nitric oxide donors, synthesis of antioxidants, antibacterial, antineoplastic, anticonvusants, beside also hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic agents.  Dr. Mohamed have good experience in the structure elucidation of the new compounds using different instrumental techniques like UV spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy (different types) and Ms spectroscopy. He had a good experience in teaching organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry for both undergraduate and postgraduate through his work in Al-Azhar University, Minia University and also during an invitation for teaching MIU University. Besides that, he had an academic work through working as the head of Pharmaceutical Chemistry Department and Vice Dean of Faculty of Pharmacy, Minia University, El-Minia, Egypt.  Now Prof. Mohamed teach medicinal chemistry courses for 3rd and 4th undergraduate students in both male and females sections. Dr. Mohamed also continued his research career though design and synthesis of anti-inflammatory compounds with high selectivity and low side effects, this beside the compounds have potential anticancer activity. In addition, he is member in many committees as accreditation and course description committees, beside that he act as course coordinator for medicinal chemistry responsible for registration of student degrees on odus system.
