Since April 2022, Israa Medlej has been admitted as a Postdoctoral Researcher for High-Level Foreign Talents (Category A) at the Southern University of Science and Technology, China.


She received her Ph.D. in Physics (Grade 1-So Honorable) in 2019 from Messina University, Italy, in collaboration with the Lebanese University. For her Ph.D. studies, she also received a scholarship sponsored by the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain (Erasmus + International Credit mobility Student [KA 107]). Her fundamental expertise includes magnetism, spintronics, magnons, and the implementation of experimental techniques for the characterization of magnetic microparticles. She also received a scholarship in 2016 sponsored by the University of Lorraine, Saint Avold (France), to do her internship of master's 2 in Condensed Matter Physics. She got the Best Oral Presentation in France and the Best Poster Award at the Conference of the Italian Magnetism Association Magnet 2019. Besides, she has been serving on an editorial board of repute. Furthermore, she was a member of the local organizing committee: i) The annual meeting of the IEEE Italy chapter in June 2018 (30 participants) and (ii) the 6th Italian conference on Magnetism (120 participants), from January 30 to February 1, 2019, conference promoted by the Italian Magnetism Society (http://magnet2019.unime.it/). She has published in international reviewed journals. She has reviewed papers in reputed journals.
