Hi there! I am Michael and I work as a foreclosure defense bolingbrook lawyer. It not an easy job but it's probably the best I ever had.

Dr. Bassel Ericsoussi was borne in Damascus, Syria. Dr Ericsoussi is an assigned pulmonary and critical care fellow at the University of Illinois at Chicago who is interested in ultrasound application and airway resuscitation in critically ill patients. He believes that thoracic ultrasound performed by physicians in the intensive care units is one of the most promising techniques for respiratory monitoring and should rapidly expand in the near future.

Dr. Ericsoussi received his post graduate training in internal medicine from University of Illinois at Chicago/Advocate Christ Medical Center, a state-designated Level I trauma center, providing trauma patients with the most sophisticated emergency medical care.

During his residency, Bassel authored a clinical research project to examine the bacteriology of chronic bronchiectasis in a cohort of 300 patients diagnosed at the University of Illinois at Chicago by HRCT scan. His research project has been presented at the international conference of the American Thoracic Society in Toronto, Canada. Bassel also wrote a chapter, in the Pocket ICU Management Manual, entitled "Infections in The Immune-Compromised Hosts" which he authored with the chief of the division of critical care medicine, and the director of critical care fellowship at the Northwestern University. The authors of the manual come from institutions all over the country and the editors are listed on the editorial board of Critical Care Medicine, the official journal of the Society of Critical Care Medicine.

Prior to his residency, Dr. Ericsoussi was researcher assistant at Harvard Medical School where he learned cell culture, fatty acid extraction, and methylation techniques. His research included measurement and determination of fatty acid composition in normal and abnormal samples. The techniques that he was utilizing in his project are solid phase extraction, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and cell culture. In his research role, he presented articles at the weekly journal club on many occasions and he worked as a researcher in developing a new high throughput diagnostic test for cystic fibrosis that resulted in co-authorship of a peer reviewed publication. Dr. Ericsoussi wrote and finilized the report that ultimately appeared in a widly read journal, Clinical Chemistry. Dr. Ericsoussi presented an entirly new way to screen for cystic fibrosis. This was evidently a very good experience that engendered a strong enthusiasm for academic medicine.

Bassel received his Medical Doctor (M.D.) and Bachelor of Science (BS) degrees from Damascus University of School of Medicine in Damasucs, Syria.

Bassel is married to Ms. Suzanne El-Moursi, Innovation Strategist and User Experience thought leader who specializes in the design of compelling user experiences, and lives in downtown Chicago, IL. He enjoys spending time with his family, outdoor cycling, photography and cooking. Dr. Ericsoussi also enjoys teaching and researching, his extended previous research projects were evidently a very good experience that engendered a strong enthusiasm for academic medicine.

Ms. Suzanne EL-Moursi was born in Cairo, Egypt. Suzanne is an Innovation Strategist and User Experience thought leader who specializes in the design of compelling user experiences by first applying dynamic design research methodologies that investigate the unique social and cultural aspects of end user segments. Through her unique approach to “gaining insight and greater intelligence” about how people live, work and play, she drives innovative products and service offerings that fulfill the aspirations and unmet needs of identified customer segments. Her passion lies within planning and executing design research initiatives, which reveal insights into customer behavior, aspirations, unarticulated needs and expectations to lead product strategy. Suzanne focuses on translating cultural and social research insights, from both design research and customer segmentation data, into distinctive competitive advantages for product and service offerings. Suzanne holds a Master's degree in Computer Science with a concentration in Human-Computer Interaction. Her graduate research was on designing multilingual technology and interactive user interfaces for users who speak a non-Latin language and English. Since that time, Suzanne has worked for a variety of international corporations, including IBM Global Services, HSBC Bank, and University of Chicago, on a variety of international projects. She has led multiple international user experience and ethnography efforts in Africa, Middle East, and Europe in Arabic and English.
