Short Biography
Dr. Mohammad Amjad Kamal is a visiting Professor at various Universities. He is leading a highly productive global collaborative research team based from Novel Global Community Educational Foundation (NGCEF), Australia. Dr. Kamal's biochemical research in the field of Alzheimer’s disease, Type 2 diabetes and leukemia etc. has culminated in more than 700 publications in internationally respected journals, and 65 abstracts at international conferences. Dr. Kamal migrated to Australia in 1998 and was awarded a prestigious U2000 Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2000 by the University of Sydney, School of Molecular and Microbial Biosciences. This three years highly competitive award funded his research on the Inhibition of amido phosphoribosyltransferase by new antifolates: Design and mechanism of action of purine antagonists. Amongst numerous projects, Dr. Kamal also collaborated on the molecular biological research project “Linkage of Alzheimer’s disease and Type 2 diabetes” at the University of Technology, Sydney - the commonalities underpinning these two disorders that impact a huge proportion of the world population remain an area of his current scientific focus. Moreover, he is serving as a regional/editorial member/guest editor of several reputed scientific journals - this is undertaken on an honorable basis.
