TAMUQ team leader, Nafees, said: “WCM-Q and TAMUQ joined hands to deliver an inspiring biomechanics workshop for high school students. Through expert-led sessions on physics and human anatomy, coupled with engaging TAMUQ experiments, students gained valuable insights into biomechanical principles.”
Kafoud said, “I would love to thank Dr Yousef and my fellow colleagues for giving me the great privilege and pleasure of being the team leader for the Physics for Future Doctors (PFD) programme.”
To take part in the programme, students must possess a good foundation in the physical sciences, demonstrated by a higher-level physics course in their high school as well as adequate English language proficiency. Additionally, students must be interested in pursuing a career in a STEMM-relevant field -Science, Technology, Engineering, Math and Medicine.
Students had the opportunity to explore and use an application recently developed by TAMUQ in collaboration with WCM-Q and engage in hands-on sessions offered jointly by highly trained WCM-Q students and TAMUQ teaching staff at WCM-Q facilities.
The programme was organised and run by WCM-Q students Aisha Kafoud, Harsh Gohil, Anns Mahboob and Raghad Ibrahim, and, from TAMUQ, Muhammad Nafees, a Ph.D student, and Hamad Al Dafaa, a fourth-year student.
Commenting on it, Dr Yousef said, “We were delighted to welcome such a talented group of high school students to our one-week programme with TAMUQ partners. Under the guidance of passionate graduate and undergraduate students from TAMUQ and WCM-Q, the participants engaged in hands-on experiments and thought-provoking discussions.
