Dr. Sameh H. Abdelwahed holds a Master's degree in Medicinal Chemistry from Cairo University. He specializes in designing and synthesizing diverse heterocyclic organic compounds, including oxazoles, thiazoles, triazoles, and pyrazoles, combined with the benzimidazole moiety. These compounds showcase a broad spectrum of biological activities, particularly antibacterial and fungicidal properties. Utilizing modern organic synthesis methods, chromatographic purification techniques, and structural analysis, Dr. Abdelwahed evaluates the biological activity of the synthesized compounds. His Ph.D. research at Marquette University focused on electro-active organic compounds, exploring their electronic and optical properties. A notable achievement in Dr. Abdelwahed's career is the development of synthetic strategies for a homologous series of co-facially stacked polyfluorenes. In groundbreaking research, he demonstrated, for the first time, the delocalization of a single charge via a hole-hopping mechanism. This significant work was published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society in 2003 and has garnered more than 150 citations. Following his postdoctoral research at Cornell University in Prof. Tadhg Begley’s laboratory, Dr. Abdelwahed continues to explore synthetic work and conducts research at the intersection of chemistry and biology. Currently, he serves as an Assistant Professor at Prairie View A&M University in the USA.
