Congratulations to Husnah Tarab, who has achieved two remarkable milestones this year. Just five weeks before sitting her final Medicine exams, Husnah welcomed her daughter, Yara Selene, into the world. Despite the challenges of recovering from a caesarean section, she successfully completed her exams and graduated from ARU last week.

Her journey was made possible through the unwavering support of her partner, family, and peers at ARU’s School of Medicine. Husnah is now celebrating both her new role as a doctor and as a mother.
