Dr. Samar Elsheikh recently joined the Pharmacogenetics Research Clinic as a post-doctoral fellow. She completed her Ph.D. and a one-year post-doctoral fellowship (in bioinformatics) at the Computational Biology Group at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. During her Ph.D., she integrated a wide range of neuroimaging characteristics and multi-omic data to better understand their associations in the context of brain-related diseases. At CAMH, her research focus will be to understand and predict antidepressant remission in older adults with depression using demographic, clinical and genetic characteristics.
