Omar El-Habbak

PhD Researcher

University of Strathclyde

Omar is currently exploring the correlation between chemical space and downstream pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. His work focuses on using machine and deep learning models to predict powder flowability based on particle size, shape, and crystal structure.

Omar’s interest in sustainable development has led him to become heavily engaged in youth advocacy. He is currently the West Asia Regional Caucus Coordinator at the United Nations Major Group for Children and Youth.
His research interests lie in the use of artificial intelligence to improve translational medical treatment, from diagnostics and bedside clinical care, which was his main B.Sc. focus, all the way to pharmaceutical product development, which is his current scope as a doctoral student.
