His Grace BishopErmia affirmed that this achievement reflects the excellence and global leadership of Egyptian medical professionals, and highlights the distinguished academic standing of Ain Shams University and its faculties. It also mirrors the efforts of the Egyptian state and its wise leadership in supporting national talents in all international forums.
His Grace wishes Professor Dr. Abdel Fattah Saud continued success in his new role and further outstanding contributions that elevate Egypt’s name in the fields of medicine and scientific research worldwide.
