Dr. Fahad Al Hadian

Assistant Professor

Biography

As an assistant professor with a deep-rooted passion for asthma research and molecular biology, I am dedicated to unraveling the complexities of this debilitating disease. My research focuses on [asthma genetics, asthma immunology, precision medicine, and biological treatment of asthma]. Beyond my research endeavors, I am committed to fostering a vibrant learning environment and inspiring the next generation of respiratory therapists. I enjoy teaching courses and mentoring students in their research projects. My goal is to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to make a meaningful impact in the field of Respiratory therapy.

Ultimately, I strive to translate my research findings into practical applications that benefit patients with asthma. By combining rigorous research, effective education, and a patient-centered approach, I hope to contribute to a future where asthma is no longer a significant burden on individuals and society.
