Her long-standing leadership in the field has been recognized with her election as a fellow of the North American Membrane Society, one of the highest honors in membrane science and engineering.

Saudi health innovators are investing heavily in smart health solutions, leveraging KAUST’s world-class infrastructure and expertise.

A new study led by scientists at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia and in collaboration with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and several institutes across India reports 26 bacterial species growing inside cleanrooms associated with NASA space missions. These unknown and newly described species show genetic properties that suggest they can survive space travel.

A new study by researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) and Taibah University has identified 15 large mammal species – three times more than previously thought – that lived in the Arabian Peninsula within the last 10000 years. The study, which can be read in the Journal of Biogeography, provides the most complete list - to date - of large mammals from this period and provides a benchmark for rewilding efforts in the region.

Using anaerobic membrane bioreactors in wastewater treatment plants may help stem the release of antimicrobial resistance genes into the environment.

A wave of hands-on discovery and scientific storytelling marked the participation of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) students in OceanQuest’s inaugural odyssey — the “Around Africa Expedition.”
