YASMIN MOUNIR MOHAMADEN ABDELRASOUL

Assistant Lecturer of Pharmacognosy

biography

Assistant Lecturer in Pharmacognosy, Department of Pharmacognosy and Medicinal Plants, Faculty of Pharmacy, Arab Academy for Science, Technology & Maritime Transport. Holds an MSc in Pharmacognosy from Cairo University and currently pursuing a PhD in the same field at Cairo University. My research integrates classical botany with modern analytical and computational approaches. I specializes in the extraction using advanced chromatographic techniques and identification of plant secondary metabolites using different platforms as GNPS, focusing on flavonoids, iridoids, secoiridoids, lignans, and phenolic acids, etc. I has experience in metabolomics profiling. My work emphasizes sustainable plant-based nanotechnology, particularly through waste valorization and the utilization of plant byproducts for nanoparticle synthesis and characterization. I also investigates the biological activities of natural products and nanomaterials, including cytotoxicity across different cancer cell lines, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic properties, and other biological activities. In addition, I applies network pharmacology and computational analysis to explore molecular mechanisms, protein–protein interactions, and multi-target drug discovery strategies. Her academic interests bridge phytochemistry, nanotechnology, and computational pharmacognosy, aiming to advance sustainable drug discovery and translational applications of natural products.
