Brief CV
Enaam Chleilat is a Canadian researcher who moved to Germany after receiving her Masters in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Guelph. She obtained her PhD in 2020 from the Institute for Anatomy and Cell Biology at the University of Freiburg. Recently, Enaam has joined the Bioinstrumentation group at IEKM as a Post-doc. In addition, she is the elected chair for the Gordon Research Seminar for the upcoming 2021 international meeting in Texas on Cardiac Arrhythmia Mechanisms.
