Medicine

My current jobs, responsibilities and projects.

The Food Medic

I'm a 5th year UCL medical student, currently based at the University College London Hospital. I have an interest in General Practice, Public Health, Acute Medicine, Nephrology and Neurology. I also completed an iBSc in Neuroscience during my intercalation year (2018-2019).

Islamic

Some of my interests, passion projects and other potential note-worthy stuff.

Mohammad Ghilan Podcast

I love to hear about new startups particularly in the tech and deep tech space (check out Entrepreneur's First if you are too). I'm now trying my hand at setting up a tech startup (Nera) and a social enterprise (Medmentor).

Islamic History Podcast

I love making things that look pretty. In particular, I enjoy graphic design (mostly social media posts) and web design (like this website)! I've been designing for a few years now and am slowly building up my portfolio. If you're interested in me doing some design work for you, hmu!

Rerooted

I've had my ups and downs with research. However, on the whole I think it can be a rather fulfilling experience, particularly when it's in an area you're really interested in and when you realise you're one of the few people out there in the world investigating that space. Previously, I've done projects at Queen Square (Neuroscience project - looking at changes in the brain during skill acquisition and adaptations) and the Royal Free Hospital (looking at the effects of a specific transporter gene found in the brain and kidneys). and now at the ENT Hospital in Bloomsbury looking at developing a diagnostic tool for nose-related conditions using sound-waves.

Entrepreneurship & Tech

Have a question? Want to collaborate? Or perhaps just want to grab coffee?! Get in touch :)

Three and a Half Founders

I've been on LinkedIn for some time now and highly recommend everyone get it! The benefits are huge. I've even noticed a trend of aspiring medics reaching out to medical student and doctors via LinkedIn for free advice ... SMART! If you're interested in connecting on a more professional level then find me on LinkedIn!
