Pr. Hamid El Amri at the UEMF: genetic engineering in the service of forensic sciences and personalized medicine

The Euromed University of Fes (UEMF) welcomed Pr. Hamid El Amri, former Director of the Royal Gendarmerie Laboratories, on the occasion of a scientific lecture dedicated to recent advances in genetic engineering and their applications in the fields of forensic sciences and personalized medicine.

Titled "One World One Health Approach, recent discoveries and applications of genetic engineering and their practical fallouts in forensic sciences and personalized medicine (cancer and tests)", this meeting gave students and participants the opportunity to explore the scientific developments that are transforming practices related to genetic analysis and medical care today.

During his intervention, Pr. Hamid El Amri highlighted several concrete applications of genetic engineering, notably in the field of forensic sciences, where genetic analysis techniques contribute to the identification and interpretation of biological data in various expert contexts. He also addressed advances related to genetic tests and their contribution to identifying certain biological characteristics that can inform diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

Particular attention was given to personalized medicine, especially in the field of oncology. The evolution of genetic knowledge makes it possible to better characterize certain pathologies and to consider therapeutic approaches more tailored to the biological characteristics specific to each patient.

The lecture was also part of the "One World One Health" approach, based on an integrated understanding of the interactions between the different dimensions of health. This perspective emphasizes the importance of crossing expertise and disciplines in order to better grasp contemporary scientific and health issues.

Through this meeting, the UEMF thus offered its students a space for exchange around a constantly evolving field, at the intersection of genetics, medicine, forensic sciences and emerging scientific technologies. The intervention of Pr. Hamid El Amri helped bring research advances closer to their concrete applications and to shed light on the perspectives that genetic engineering today opens in the fields of health and scientific expertise.
