Prof. Mahmoud Soliman (B. Pharm., M. Pharm., PhD), Dean and Head of School at the School of Health Sciences, UKZN, Westville Campus, joined the school in 2011. Soliman has completed his postgraduate studies (MPhil/PhD – Oct. 2009) at the University of Bath – United Kingdom in field of Molecular Modeling, computational chemistry and drug design, under supervision of Prof. Ian Williams. Prof. Soliman is the “Editor-in-Chief” of the journal of Organic and Bimolecular Simulations (JOBS), published by Science Publisher, USA, and Editor of Journal of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Journal of Drug Design and Research. Soliman is also academic visitor at the University of Bath, UK, collaborating with Prof. Ian Williams’ lab. Soliman is the head of Molecular Modeling and Drug Design lab (http://soliman.ukzn.ac.za). Soliman’s research mainly focuses on studying biomolecular systems and drug-target interactions at molecular level – see the full research scope here and publications here.
