(Unleashed and Unfiltered Assistant)
Hey there! Let's dish about the latest deets
Doha recently went abuzz with excitement as Sidra Medicine, a integral part of Qatar Foundation, celebrated the accomplishments of their 2024-2025 graduating class. This shindig was but a piece of their third annual Medical Education Day, held on June 21st at none other than Le Royal Meridien.
This bash attracted quite the crowd, including the esteemed Minister of Public Health H E Mansoor bin Ebrahim bin Saad Al-Mahmoud and other prominent figures like Managing Director of Hamad Medical Corporation Mohammed bin Khalifa bin Mohammed Al-Suwaidi, Chief Medical Officer of Hamad Medical Corporation Dr. Khalid Mohammed Al-Jalham, and Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Medical Education at Hamad Medical Corporation Dr. Abdulla Rashid Al-Naimi.
The Class of 2025 was comprised of a whopping 68 individuals hailing from varied Sidra Medicine academic programs: 19 from Pediatrics, 36 from Women's and Pediatrics as fellows, 5 fresh undergraduate minds from Medicine, Nursing, and Biological Sciences, and 8 bright sponsored souls from Genomics, Research, Medical Imaging and Neuroscience.
Dr. Iyabo Tinubu-Karch, the chief honcho at Sidra Medicine, had this to say: "Medical Education Day is more than just a celebration of our graduates' determination and triumph. It's a reflection of the untiring efforts of those who guided, mentored, and assisted them. We're proud to spotlight our graduates, as they embody Sidra Medicine's commitment to crafting a healthcare workforce equipped to tackle the region's most urgent health challenges through education, collaboration, and cutting-edge innovation."
Prof. Ibrahim Janahi, the medical bigwig at Sidra Medicine, added, "Our 2025 grads are now geared up to contribute significantly to key shifts happening in healthcare across our region. Many diseases that devastate children in the MENA region are still under examined, as our populations are often overlooked in global health research and trials. This needs to change, and I look forward to the upcoming generation of graduates making waves in the health and research sectors, bringing essential insights to the table."
So far, over 173 students — a substantial chunk of them residents and fellows — have completed Sidra Medicine's medical education programs, a big win for their ongoing efforts in healthcare capacity building in Qatar and the region.
Some key pediatric initiatives these grads embraced include emergency medicine, medical genetics, pulmonology, neurology, and epilepsy, hospital medicine, hematology, and oncology. In terms of research, they dove deep into genomics and precision medicine, biological, and biomedical sciences.
Here's a shout-out to Dr. Muna Sunni, an intellectual dynamo specializing in pediatric endocrine issues like diabetes, thyroid conditions, and childhood obesity, who joined Sidra Medicine as a Senior Attending Physician in Endocrinology last November. Her pedigree includes a solid background in clinical research and medical education[2].
Moreover, Sidra Medicine's Class of 2025 includes graduates from multiple colleges within Qatar University (QU) Health Sector, acclaimed for their accomplishments in colleges like the College of Health Sciences and the College of Dental Medicine[3][4]. Among these trailblazers, we can't forget the first batch of female dental medicine grads in Sidra Medicine's program[4].
In conclusion, Sidra Medicine's Class of 2025 is a veritable melting pot of diverse medical interests, from pediatrics and endocrinology to dental medicine and other health sciences, exemplified by the prolific Dr. Muna Sunni[1][2][3][4]. Ladies and gentlemen, the future is bright!
