About

Prof. Magdi E. A. Zaki graduated in Chemistry in 1980. Currently, he is a Full Professor of Organic Chemistry at the Department of Chemistry of Imam Mohamed ibn Saud Islamic University, KSA, and permanently at the Photochemistry Department, National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, where he is the scientific leader of the Advanced Organic Synthesis Group. Prof. Zaki subsequently has been invited as an Invited Associate professor at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Technology, Silesian Technical University, Poland, and College of Chemistry, Konstanz University (1991–1994, 1995–1996). From 1999–2012, Prof. Zaki worked as a Visiting Professor at Centro de Quimica, School of Science, Minho University, Portugal. Prof. Zaki's research focuses on the design and synthesis of molecules for fundamental importance. Besides, exploring the reaction mechanism and ring transformation, transition metal chelates as potent new anticancer agents, Alzheimer's disease, nanomaterials, environmental research, organo-catalysis, bioinformatics, and drug design. He published more than 200 SCI papers, and two German and South African patents. He has also participated in 18 funded Egyptian, Polish, Portuguese, German, and Saudi projects
