My main interests are in the fields of upper gastrointestinal surgery, Medical education, and Oncology, particularly gastroesophageal malignancies, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, soft tissue tumors, and peritoneal surface tumors. Upper gastrointestinal surgery and oncosurgery are my major subspecialty with special interest in esophageal surgery, Barrett’s esophagus, gastric and other intra-abdominal tumors. Esophageal and gastric cancers are my main clinical interest. My focus of the esophageal cancer research is on the investigation of the molecular changes during the multistep malignant progression of columnar-lined (Barrett’s) esophagus. One of the current research projects is investigating the role of cyclin E expression in esophageal cancer. The study on glucose transporter is also underway for esophageal cancer research. I am also involved in the research to elucidate the prognostic factors in gastric cancer patients. My main focus of research is the inquiry of carcinogenesis in the stomach cancer, which is concentrated on the cell cycle molecules, eg p21 and p27, and H. pylori. I am investigating the role of different cyclins in the multistage tumorigenesis of gastric cancer and the correlation between the expression of cyclins and the degree of histologic aggressiveness and prognostic indices in patients of gastric carcinoma. At the moment I am investigating the gastric carcinoma in Northern Jordan with regards to the expression of a panel of tumor markers including cyclin E, p21, p27, p53 and EGFR. Also I am investigating the relationship of H. pylori to gastric adenocarcinoma and type of H. pylori strains in Jordan. My future research topics are prognostic molecular markers for gastric adenocarcinomas. Another research field is to evaluate the possibilities of combining many molecular markers as a prognosticator for gastric cancer.
Supervision of Postgraduate Students In addition to training and supervising the Surgical Residents at King Abdullah Teaching Hospitals towards the Certificate of Higher Surgical Specialty, I supervised or served as a co-advisor for the following Master Thesis: 1. A study of Factors Affecting the Prevalence of Peptic Ulcer disease in Northern Jordan. (Student name: Fakery AM Al-Sharu; Student number: 9508216).

(Student name: Khalid AZ Ahmed; Student number: 98012620). Master degree awarded August 2000. 3. Molecular Markers in Gastric cancers in Northern Jordan. (Student name: Hanan N Karam). Master degree awarded June 2001. 4. Polymorphism of p53 gene in Jordanian population and possible association with breast cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. (Student name: Suzan Abdul-Hafiz). Master degree awarded August 2003. 5. P53 expression in Jordanian population and in patients with colorectal carcinoma (Student name: Yasmine Thenat). Master degree awarded January 2004. 6. Genotypes of Helicobacter pylori prevalent among Jordanian patients with gastritis (Student name: Marwa Fareed Ibrahim; Student number: 20023012011). Master degree awarded December 2004. 7. Cyclin E, p21, and p53 alterations in ovarian cancer (Student name: Amal Zahran; Student number: 20023093006). Master degree awarded June 2005. 8.

I am involved in teaching the under and postgraduate medical students the course of upper gastrointestinal surgery, including gastric and esophageal malignancies. In addition, I work as a consultant surgeon at King Abdullah University Hospital. In addition to performing general, upper gastrointestinal and laparoscopic surgical procedures, I am performing upper and lower gastrointestinal diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopies. From September 2003 to August 2006, and as I was appointed the Chairman of Department of Surgery, School of Medicine-Jordan University of Science & Technology, I developed a plan to improve and promote the department and improve the way of conducting the examination for the student and surgical trainee. When I was appointed as the Chairman of A&E Department at King Abdullah University Hospital, School of Medicine-Jordan University of Science & Technology during 2000-2003, I headed a committee, which established the policy and protocols for the A&E Department and the Disaster plan for the hospital.
