I am an MD and board equivalent in Critical Care Medicine, holder of a Habilitation a Diriger des Recherches (HDR) from Xavier Bichat Medical School, University Paris VII.
I worked as an intensivist for eight years in university hospitals in Paris before moving to the Saudi Arabia. I joined King Faisal Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, in 1986 until 2010 (25 years). I occupied several positions, including Head of the Intensive Care Unit, Scientist, and Chair of Comparative Medicine Department. I joined King Abdullah International Medical Research Center in 2010 as Chair of Experimental Medicine Department and Consultant Intensivist.
My research focus on heat illnesses, particularly heat exhaustion and heatstroke. I have published so far, 40 papers on heatstroke in peer-reviewed journals. Stanford University has ranked me in the top 2% of the most cited researcher in 2021. I have two patents by the US Patent and Trademark Office.
