Atheer Awad recently recognised by MIT Technology Review as one of 15 Innovators Under 35

15 February 2022

Innovators Under 35 is an annual list that recognises outstanding innovators who are younger than 35. The search is for individuals whose superb technical work promises to shape the coming decades.

Atheer Awad is a research fellow at the School of Pharmacy. She earned her PhD and master’s in Pharmaceutics and Drug Design from ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳, and her Bachelor’s in Pharmacy from the Applied Science University, Jordan. She was nominated because of her current research at ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳, which involves the 3D printing of personalised medications.

Dr Atheer Awad

Since 1999, MIT Technology Review has honoured the young innovators whose inventions and research are most exciting. Today that collection is Innovators Under 35, a list of technologists and scientists, all under the age of 35. Their work – spanning biomedicine, computing, communications, energy, materials, software, transportation, web and internet, and more – is changing the world!

The goal is to recognise the development of new technology or the creative application of existing technologies to solve the world’s biggest problems. IU35 rewards ingenious and elegant work that matters to the world at large — not just to peers in a particular field or industry. A panel of judges - experts in different fields - assess candidates, seeking a mixture of individuals that represent current trends in technology and the diversity of innovation around the globe. They seek innovators who introduce new and better solutions that change the way people live or work.

We congratulate Atheer for this outstanding award!
