Biography

Eiman Aleem is an academic leader with extensive international experience. She is Professor in Biomedical Science, and Head of the Research Group Cancer, Infection and Therapeutics at London South Bank University, UK. She received her Ph.D. in Molecular Cancer Biology from the University of Heidelberg, Germany, where she investigated the insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signalling in cancer. She completed her postdoctoral training at the National Cancer Institute-Frederick, USA, where she studied the in vivo regulation of cyclin-dependent kinases using genetically modified mice. She received a Marie-Curie grant for senior researchers to further study novel interactions of the IGF-1R in cancer at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden. She then moved to Phoenix Children’s Hospital and the University of Arizona College of Medicine, Phoenix to work on understanding the mechanisms of drug resistance in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia using OMICS and functional drug screening. Her current research focuses on the identification of molecular targets, in cancer, and on the IGF-1R interactome. She utilizes computational and wet-lab approaches. Professor Aleem supervised tens of postgraduate students in UK, USA, Sweden, and Egypt. As an educator, she developed, led, and taught on several programmes in biomedical science, molecular cell biology and clinical translational sciences.
