In 2015, he started working in virology, as a teaching assistant of virology and immunology in the dep of Virology, Cairo University; earning a Master of Virology degree in 2019 and was promoted to assistant lecturer in 2020. During that time, he worked on many projects for development of modern sensitive molecular diagnostic techniques for detection of many animal and human viruses, including SARS -CoV-2 and Influenza viruses. One of these projects was to use Nanopore sequencing as a field test for non-targeted diagnosis of respiratory disease complex in chicken. Concurrently he was enrolled in other projects for development of vaccines against Foot and Mouth Disease virus (FMDV), Rift Valley Fever virus (RVFV), and SARS -CoV-2.

In 2023, he enrolled as a PhD student at the Dep of Veterinary Medicine, Cambridge University, to start investigating the role of influenza virus neuraminidase in the host immune response.
