He has an extensive background in marine sciences, holding several degrees in the field. From 2015 to 2019, he completed his PhD in Ecology and Marine Environment at the University Abdelhamid Ibn Badis in Mostaganem, Algeria. His doctoral research focused on the bioaccumulation of trace metals and radionuclides in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus along the Algerian coasts, which can be found detailed in his publication at https://doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.18200.42243. Prior to his PhD, he earned a Magister in Marine Science and Aquaculture from the same university from 2012 to 2015, researching the quality of seawater in Mostaganem’s coastal region using the same species as bioindicators.

Before his postgraduate studies, he was trained as an Engineer in Marine Sciences at the National Higher School of Marine Sciences and Coastal Management (ENSSMAL) in Algiers, Algeria, where he investigated the impact of chemical pollution on Posidonia meadows in the Bay of Algiers. This project was completed as part of his program from 2005 to 2011. Dr. [Name] began his academic journey after earning his Baccalaureate in the Scientific Section from Mohammed Rekaizi High School in Hadjout, Tipasa, Algeria in 2005.
