Name: Belal Al-Husein

Current Position: Assistant Professor, Department of Clinical Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST), Irbid, Jordan.

Participation in the RCR Program:

I had an MS degree in Clinical Pharmacy from JUST and PhD in Clinical and Experimental Therapeutics from the University of Georgia. As a professor in the Department of Clinical Pharmacy in JUST, I am required to conduct clinical research and this requires an Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval. Joining this RCR program will serve my research objectives and facilitate my inclusion in IRB committees for related research. I am also interested in conducting basic research involving cell culture and more importantly in vivo animal research that requires compliance with Animal Committee regulations and ethics.

My Research Ethics Related Interests:

I am conducting basic and clinical cancer research. Both involve animals and human subjects and this mandates meeting research ethics requirements I am enriching in this course.
