Behind every supplement that reaches a customer in Egypt is one honest question: is there real evidence that it works and is safe at this dose? The Beseha Academy track in Supplement Science trains fresh pharmacy, science and nutrition graduates to answer that question with method. You will learn to read research, weigh evidence, and understand ingredients, doses, quality specifications and the regulatory basis behind each product.
Experience: Fresh graduates or final-year students; no prior work experience required
Why this role mattersBeseha wants to be a trusted health voice that teaches people rather than selling them promises, and that starts with the team deciding what can be said about each product. A health claim built on weak evidence can mislead someone making a decision about their own body. This track develops people who can tell a strong study from marketing, working under the supervision of licensed pharmacists.
What you will do and learn
- Search scientific databases such as PubMed for studies on a given ingredient, so every product statement rests on a real source
- Appraise studies on design, sample size, duration, funding and actual results, to separate strong evidence from preliminary findings
- Compare the doses on product labels with studied doses and safe upper limits, to flag products that are underdosed or exceed safe levels
- Review ingredient forms, certificates of analysis and quality specifications, to confirm that what the pack says matches what is inside and meets standards
- Review health claims in product descriptions and blog articles, and propose precise wording that fits the evidence and the regulatory framework
- Write clear scientific summaries in Arabic that the content team, pharmacists and customer service can use directly
- Document every review with its references in an organised way, building a knowledge library the team can return to
What we need
- Fresh graduate or final-year student in pharmacy, science (chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology or similar) or nutrition
- Ability to read an English-language research paper and understand its abstract and results
- Basic knowledge of study types (randomised controlled trial, observational study, systematic review), or a clear readiness to learn them quickly
- Clear, accurate Arabic writing that simplifies science without changing its meaning
- Availability to work on-site at our New Cairo office for the full internship
Nice to have
- A graduation project or research that involved a literature review or data analysis
- Experience with a reference manager such as Zotero or Mendeley
- Early familiarity with pharmaceutical quality concepts such as GMP or certificates of analysis
- Use of AI tools for research, with a habit of verifying their sources
Programme stages
- Learnbuild the fundamentals of reading a scientific paper, study designs and grading evidence strength, plus how to read a supplement label and a certificate of analysis and how supplements are regulated in Egypt
- Applycarry out real evidence reviews on ingredients in products we currently sell, write a summary of each review that states the strength and limits of the evidence, and discuss it with your supervising pharmacist
- Buildprepare a complete scientific dossier for one product covering ingredients, doses, evidence, safety, interactions, quality specifications and permissible claims, and present it to the R&D team
Where this can lead
- Scientific affairs officer or R&D specialist for dietary supplements
- Quality or regulatory affairs specialist for health and supplement products
- Medical and scientific content writer who reviews evidence before publication
