ABOUT

Founder


Hi. My name is Mohamad-Ali Salloum and I am a Pharmacist, YouTuber and Content Creator with a Clinical PharmD Degree and M2 in Clinical Research & Pharmaco-Epidemiology.

I care a lot about continuous education for medical and non-medical people. For that, I started this website to share my knowledge about productivity tips that allowed me to progress in my life and the medical information that might help students understand the topics clearer and allow non-medical people to enjoy the medical topics through simple scientific language. Currently I work in the Clinical Research field.
