My name is Rusul Mustafa and I am from Iraq, Baghdad. I’m a graduate student pursing a PhD degree in Analytical Chemistry specifically in the field of gene/drug delivery. My research interest is focused on characterizing the molecular interaction between the cell and the most evolving non-viral polymeric delivery vehicles using an innovative technique called Raman Chemical Imaging.
