Dr. Saleh received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Toronto in 1997. Working at the Department of medical biophysics his work concerned the interaction of bacterial toxins and membranes. Prior to joining the Department of Biology at Laurentian University, I spent time as a postdoctoral fellow at the The University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and Colorado State University. Dr. Saleh is currently the Chairperson for the Department of Biology at Laurentian University.

The area of my expertise is molecular biophysics. My training in this area has been used in the past 15 years to study various aspects of bacterial physiology and their interactions with their environments. Several research programs were carried out in relation to the interaction of bacteria with their environments in both pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria. In non-pathogenic bacteria, I used bioinformatics techniques to address certain questions on the process of protein secretion in bacteria. Specifically, how the structural features of signal sequences direct the membrane translocation of signal sequence-containing secretory proteins. I currently have a graduate student looking at the involvement of the mRNA of such secretory proteins in targeting the protein to the membrane for translocation and secretion. In terms of other aspects of bacterial protein secretion (relevant to pathogenesis), I'm interested in the secretion mechanisms and characterization of bacterial extracellular polypeptides. My group is involved in several projects at the present time to include work with RNA-binding proteins and their role in protein secretion, physiological and immunological comparative studies of Streptomyces and Mycobacteria, and the cloning and characterization of a number of virulence factors of mycobacteria, mycoplasma and Streptomyces.

After obtaining my Academic Degree in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry at the Autónoma University, Madrid, Spain, I initiated my Ph.D. Student Program at the Carlos III Health Institute, Majadahonda. My initial field of research was the study of HTLV infections among HIV-1 infected patients. I also initiated some epidemiologic research on HIV infections, including HIV-1 group O and HIV-2. I moved to the Laboratory of Molecular Virology, CBER, Food and Drug Administration, Bethesda, MD, USA, as a Post Doctoral Fellow (1995-2000) and developed my work on molecular epidemiology of HTLV and HIV, and viral tropism. Then I joined the Immunovirology Laboratory at the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital, Seville, Spain, as an independent researcher (2000-2008). I focused my research on immune recovery of HIV-1-infected patients. Then I moved to Ramon y Cajal University Hospital in Madrid to follow my research on HIV-1 immunopathology and continuing the research on HTLV-1/2 infections (2008- ) running the Laboratory of Molecular Virology within the Infectious Diseases Department.. I also coordinate the subject Methods in Virology included in the Master of Virology at the Complutense University (UCM) in Madrid. I am also member of the Editorial Board of Scientific Journals such as Medicine, Current Immunology Reviews, and The Open Immunology Journal. I collaborate as a reviewer for human resources and projects in Spanish National Evaluation Agencies (ANEP, FIS).
