Biography
Hussein Kanbar is currently a postdoc in the Department of Chemistry at Umeå University. He is presently working on the molecular mechanisms behind the immobilization and preservation of sedimentary and ancient DNA (aDNA) by clay minerals under the supervision of A/Prof. Michael Holmboe.
Hussein obtained his Ph.D. in Geochemistry from Lorraine University and the Lebanese University (joint work) in July 2017; the PhD work was supervised by Emmanuelle Montargès-Pelletier and is entitled: “What the Orne River tells about the former steelmaking activities: chemical and mineralogical investigations on sediments”. Afterwards, he worked as a part-time independent researcher at the Research and Analysis Platform for Environmental Sciences (PRASE) and the Applied Plant Biotechnology Laboratory (APBL) of the Lebanese University. Hussein also obtained his M.Sc. in Hydrosciences (2012) and his B.Sc. in Earth and Life Sciences (2010) form the Lebanese University.
