Raghad S. Mouhamad

I am a professor at the Iraqi Scientific Research Authority, specializing in plant biology and biotechnology. Over the past years, I have contributed to various research projects, including studying the genetic mechanisms of environmental adaptation and the impacts of climate change on plant survival, particularly in Middle Eastern ecosystems. My research focuses on simulating wheat productivity in Iraq for future scenarios in marginal soils. I possess extensive experience in experimental research, employing advanced techniques such as simulating microgravity and space farming. My work also includes analyzing unidentified vitamin forms in mushrooms and applying molecular methods to explore soil microbial diversity and the mechanisms of microplastic degradation. Beyond my research contributions, I actively participate in international scientific collaborations and was recently invited to author a chapter in the forthcoming book "Revolutionizing Microbial Technology: AI" to be published by Elsevier. These experiences have enabled me to develop a comprehensive understanding of multidisciplinary approaches to tackling global challenges, making my expertise highly relevant to advancing research and innovation.Currently, I am working on soil sustainability initiatives as part of the SoilBon team, dedicated to enhancing the sustainable management of natural resources and ensuring soil health for future generations.
