Four students from the School of Applied Medical Sciences (SAMS) at the German Jordanian University (GJU) participated in an academic and research exchange programme in Lübeck, Germany, funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). The programme aimed to strengthen scientific and research cooperation and promote the exchange of expertise in the field of industrial biotechnology.
The programme included visits to Lübeck University of Applied Sciences (TH Lübeck), its Industrial Biotechnology Center, and the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Individualized and Cell-Based Medical Engineering (IMTE). It also featured participation in a research project, academic and professional meetings, and a public lecture delivered at TH Lübeck.
The participating students were Salma Alkurdi, Tulin Melhem, Yara Almasri, and Jood Jaber, under the supervision of Dr. Walid Al-Zyoud. Their participation provided opportunities to explore ongoing research, engage with researchers and members of the German academic community, and gain international research experience.
