She enjoys the challenge of creating something entirely new and consistently following a meticulous pattern to achieve the most accurate results. Her passion for science motivated her always to be the first student and part of the elite foundation. She has worked on various projects related to biomass conversion, hormonal and organic fertilizers formulation, organic and medical plant production, anaerobic systems, and bioreactor and greenhouse designs. She regularly work as a researcher at different places, so that she can get the latest knowledge and update herself in every way. Besides, as a lifelong artist along with her mother (who is a fashion designer), she has been working as a designer to create expressive and exciting pieces. When she's not working and traveling, you might find Dr. Zahra on her road bike in Gentofte, archery fields, or painting and wood inlaying in her workshop.
