Sabah Ibrahim is a CARA-funded PhD researcher in Microbiology at Robert Gordon University, working at the intersection of bioinformatics, antimicrobial resistance, and computational drug discovery. Her research focuses on developing a reproducible computational pipeline for genome-scale antivirulence target prioritisation in multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, integrating pathogen genomics, virulence profiling, and computer-aided drug design to identify novel therapeutic targets.
Originally from Sudan, Sabah is a researcher and Lecturer at the National University Biomedical Research Institute (NUBRI). Her research experience spans pathogen genomics, antimicrobial resistance, and public health data analysis, with projects involving Gram-negative bacterial pathogens, hepatitis B virus (HBV), and COVID-19. She has also facilitated international bioinformatics training programmes through the Pan-African Bioinformatics Network (H3ABioNet), a pan-African initiative that strengthens bioinformatics research and training capacity.
Sabah is passionate about expanding access to bioinformatics education and strengthening scientific capacity in low-resource settings. She is especially interested in initiatives bringing together researchers, educators, policymakers, and communities to support informed decision-making, reduce knowledge barriers, and address global health challenges through evidence-based dialogue and engagement.
