MERGE Group is pleased to welcome Mohamed Ezzat as KAUST visiting student for one week. Mohamed Ezzat is a 4th-year Ph.D. candidate in Geothermal Energy and Geofluids Group at ETH Zurich. His Ph.D. investigates the physics underlining the Plasma-Pulse Geo-Drilling technology using numerical modeling and lab experiments under ambient and deep wellbore conditions. In 2018, Ezzat received the European MSc of Nuclear Fusion and Engineering Physics jointly from Stuttgart University (Germany), Carlos III Madrid University (Spain), CIMAT (Spain), and Ghent University (Belgium). In 2015, Ezzat
