July / August 2015 - Volume 13 Issue 5

In our ongoing tribute to regional doctors and medical students going about their education, careers and lives under extremely difficult circumstances and often with lack of personal safety, we salute the second female medical graduate in the Dizaye family in Erbil Iraq - Saya Dizaye, pictured with her father Professor Kawa Dizaye, in the same place, at the same university he graduated from, Hawler University, 19 years apart.




We earlier featured older sister Sanaa and her father taken at her graduation in 2014, in the same place, 15 years apart.
