Mohammad,Khattab,Assistant Research Scientist,"Mohammad earned his BVSc from Cairo University, Egypt, and started his career as an Instructor in Veterinary Internal Medicine. He then received his MVSc in Large Animal Internal Medicine and his PhD in Small Animal Internal Medicine from the same University, where he served as Assistant Professor.
Mohammad is leading the Metabolomics Lab at the Gastrointestinal Laboratory in the Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M University.
At Texas A&M, Mohammad started research on the gut microbiome and microbial therapy with an emphasis on the immunological and metabolic interactions between host and gut microbiota. He has developed state-of-the-art flow cytometry protocols for the identification of fecal microbiota and estimation of IgA coated microbiota, as well as a novel protocol for discriminating microbiota based on viability.
I'm running research projects to measure different microbiota-related metabolites and studying their correlations with specific gut microbiota. Like Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA), targeted Bile Acids, Sterols, Fatty Acids, MMA, NMH and other targeted and non-targeted metabolites. We are investigating these metabolites in fecal samples, urine, and serum of dogs and cats, in addition to in-vitro experiments and models from gnotobiotic mice and other biological samples.",Assistant Research Scientist,Small Animal Clinical Sciences,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n0a16e1d7

Patricia,Klein,Professor,"Dr. Klein's research focuses on developing the genomic tools and resources in crops to enable map base cloning of economically important genes, and to understand the underlying mechanisms that plants use to withstand biotic and abiotic stress. Dr. Klein conducts genetic studies on several plant species including sorghum, rose, and pecan. In 2012, Dr. Klein was awarded the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Dean's Outstanding Achievement Award for excellence as a member of the Sorghum Bioenergy Breeding and Genomics Interdisciplinary Research Team.",Executive Associate Dean||Professor,College of Agriculture and Life Sciences||Horticultural Sciences,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n83864ec9

Jonathan,Kotinek,Director,"Jonathan Kotinek '99 serves as Director for LAUNCH: Honors, where he has advised students since 2003. He holds both a B.A. and M.A. in English from Texas A&M University and earned a Ph.D. in educational psychology in 2013. His dissertation title was ""A Narrative Examination of the Experience of Early Entrance to College.""
Kotinek has been active with the National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC), serving as a member of the Board of Directors from 2011-2014 and as co-chair for the Diversity Issues Committee from 2006-2016. He has co-edited two monographs for NCHC on diversity: Setting the Table for Diversity (2010) and Occupy Honors Education (2017). Kotinek also serves as the Public Relations officer for the Texas A&M Chapter of Phi Kappa Phi and is a candidate for Phi Kappa Phi Vice President for Division 1.",Director,Dean-Undergrad Programs & Assoc Provost,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nd0a0a020
Khaled,Kamal,Assistant Research Scientist,"I have acquired cellular and physiology experience and a research collaboration network inside and outside the United States, providing me with integrative in vitro to ex vivo and in vivo approaches to study musculoskeletal biology. my research focus on understanding mechanotransduction, redox biology, muscle-tissue communication and crosstalk, and gene therapy/drug development with the long-term goal of elucidating the mechanisms governing ROS in skeletal muscle atrophy and damage pathways and the potential therapeutic targets of chronic muscular disease (e.g., neuromuscular disease (DMD), T2 diabetes, Aging, and spaceflight disuse). I am leading projects funded by NASA, FightMD, and PPMD, focusing on understanding skeletal muscle atrophy and pathology damage in spaceflight and Duchene muscular dystrophy (DMD). Currently, I have proposals under review at NASA, NIH, and other organizations. I am excited about completing my research agenda in space biology and human physiology, skeletal muscle, redox biology, and inflammation.
With experience teaching and conducting research at Texas A&M University, I have mentored aspiring research scientists in space life science, cellular and molecular biology, and musculoskeletal biology while teaching courses in exercise physiology and signal transduction.",Assistant Research Scientist,Kinesiology and Sport Management,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/ndb07aa19
Konstantinos,Kakosimos,Associate Professor,"Dr. Konstantinos E. Kakosimos is an associate professor of Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M University at Qatar. He received his Chemical Engineering Diploma in 2002 and his Ph.D. in 2009 both from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. He has more than 55 peer-reviewed publications and four books/chapters in English and Greek languages. His main research activities are focused on the development and application of the tools needed to improve and sustain the quality of the environment. In 2014, he established the Sustainable Energy and Clean Air Research lab (SECAReLab) with unique facilities for the development and testing of solar-driven chemical processes and the associated equipment and materials. In brief, he conducts research on the experimental and numerical modeling of transport and reacting phenomena with applications in Environmental fluid mechanics and monitoring for air quality, Risk analysis and effects estimation of fires, explosions, and toxic gases dispersion, and Solar photo- and thermochemical processes, reactors, and materials. So far, he has received more than $5.5M of cumulative awards from external and internal sources.
Moreover, he researches new educational methods and techniques, for which he received the 2015 IChemE Hutchison medal. He is also the recipient of the 2016 Research Laboratory Safety, 2017 Research Excellence for Early Carrier Faculty, and 2019 Faculty Excellence Awards at Texas A&M. In addition to teaching and research, Dr. Kakosimos serves the local and international community variously, such as secretary of the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry - Arabian Gulf Branch (2014-15), Chair of the Principle Investigators Council at Texas A&M Qatar (2017-2018), Chair of the Qatar National Air Quality Standards subcommittee of the Ministry of Municipalities and Environment (2018), and task force member at the Ministry of Public Health (2018-today).",Associate Professor||Faculty Affiliate,Energy Institute||Chemical Engineering (Qatar),https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/ndbab886c
