Dr. Firas Kobeissy obtained his PhD from the University of Florida in the area of Neuroscience. His post doc at the Department of Psychiatry focused on neuroproteomics studies of brain injury as well as drug abuse neurotoxicity. His current research is in the area of biochemistry and neuroscience focusing on identifying biomarkers of traumatic brain injury neuroproteomics.Dr. Kobeissy is the author of more than 75 articles, reviews and book chapters along with two patents. He is a member of the Center of Neuroproteomics and Biomarker Research (CNBR) at the McKnight Brain Institute at the University of Florida. He is the editor of three books (Humana Press and Taylor and Francis); the books deal with biomarker identification and proteomics research. Dr. Kobeissy has published extensively in the areas of systems biology pertaining to the areas of deciphering biomarker and pathways of pathogenesis in brain studies obtained from high throughput proteomics data.
