After working for 4+ years in Pharma and Research, Sherouk witnessed firsthand the long drug development pipelines that hinder the progress of healthcare. This was the main motivation for Sherouk to join the Ascenscia team and be part of its mission to accelerate drug discovery. Sherouk holds an MSc in Biomedical Sciences from Radboud University in the Netherlands, and a Business Administration Diploma from Indiana University in the USA. At her current role as Marketing Manager, Sherouk combines her scientific and business knowledge to create messages that resonate with the scientific community. On a personal level, Sherouk brings to the team a weird love for unpopular Egyptian songs that no one else understands.
