Meet Your Instructor …. Zein

As a medical student I have struggled to find research opportunities, persevering through lots of trials and errors… ultimately I managed to lead multiple research projects from the scratch to publication.

Afterwards, I have started working as a research instructor, teaching more than 200 students how to conduct and publish articles. Lastly, I joined the editorial board of a certain Q1 journal to get to know the other side of the publishing process.

I hope that through R.F.A. you will get to love and enjoy research the way I do. Each member will be mentored and taught each step of the process so that they could have all the necessary tools to lead their own projects.

Together with my sibling, we founded Research For All with one mission: Bringing Research Education for Everyone for Free. We hope you join us.
