Ammar joined us in February 2021 for his Master's thesis funded by NAWA Łukasiewicz programme, which he defended in June 2022. Ammar is interested in neglected tropical diseases, particularly in the prevention and treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis. During his time with us, Ammar co-authored two publications in this field in collaboration with colleagues from Nigeria. Congratulations to Ammar and co-authors!
