OverviewAI-generated summary

Zeina Alraawi's research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) and their signaling pathways, particularly the FGF/FGFR system. Her work investigates the roles of FGFs in various biological functions and their relevance to disease states. Alraawi has also explored the structural modifications of proteins, such as polyphenols' effects on sorghum and rice, and examined the stability of heat-shock proteins. Her recent publications delve into the engineering of hyper-stable FGF1 variants and the broader implications of endocrine FGFs. Alraawi collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, with shared publications in areas including FGF signaling and protein structure. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 5, with 17 total publications and 146 citations.
