About

Mahmoud Abbas serves as an associate professor of Marine Biology in the Zoology Department, Faculty of Science at Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt. He teaches various courses within the Faculty of Science at Al-Azhar University and has been a member of the Marine Biology Lab and Animal House since 2012. Abbas earned a B.S. in marine biology and chemistry from Al-Azhar University in 2009, followed by an M.S. in environmental pollution in 2015, also from Al-Azhar University. In 2020, he obtained his Ph.D. in aquatic resources from the same institution.

His research interests encompass a broad spectrum of environmental sciences, including environmental toxicology, water and metal pollution, fish physiology, environmental risk assessment, fish biotechnology, aquatic toxicology, marine environments, and nanotechnology. Abbas has contributed significantly to the improvement of aquaculture, fish preservation methods, assessing environmental and human health risks associated with metal toxicity. He has organized workshops on environmental monitoring, aquaculture and biostatistics for academics and professionals, delivered numerous invited talks and tutorials, and provides consultancy services to companies engaged in fish processing and technology.
