Eman Thabet is a lecturer of Medical Physiology, at the Alexandria Faculty of Medicine, as well as the Vice executive manager of the Centre of Excellence for Research in Regenerative Medicine & Research Applications (CERRMA) with more than five years of experience in the field of regenerative medicine.
Dr. Thabet first encountered extracellular vesicles (EVs) and micro RNAs during her PhD at CERRMA, in the field of regenerative medicine in reproductive diseases and has been working on the roles of extracellular vesicles in different body systems throughout her postdoctoral studies.
Being one of the first few people to work on EVs in Egypt, she was motivated to start a society to connect all researchers working in the field, Dr. Thabet has contributed to the scientific optimization of isolation and characterization protocols in the lab and has co-authored various publications in the EVs field including a chapter book in 2022. More than anything, Dr. Thabet enjoys planning and coordinating practical workshops that deliver maximal learning experiences and she was acknowledged through local departmental awards for this.
Dr. Thabet is a member of the International Society of Stem Cells Research (ISSCR), the International Society of Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV), the American Physiological society (APS), the Society for the Study of reproduction (SSR), and The Physiological Society.
Dr. Thabet has earned a support grant, as principal investigator, during the first call of the Alexandria University Research Support Initiative “Alex-RSI” to study the role of slow-release extracellular vesicles in muscle regeneration. She is also a team member in several other running projects funded by The Cardiovascular Research, Education & Prevention Foundation (CVREP) and Science and Technology Development Fund (STDF) in the field of extracellular vesicles.
