I co-founded the The Middle East Biology of Parasitism (MeBoP) Course, high-caliber scientific course that covers various aspects of parasitology from molecular biology and epidemiology to genomics, targeting for participants in the Middle East as well as North and Sub-Saharan Africa. I successfully directed this annual course since its inception.
