A sociologist specialized in the field of gender and migration. She earned her doctorate degree in sociology in 2019. Her doctoral research examined the interrelationship between gender and Lebanese social scientists’ academic mobility.

Mariam carried out several research-stays at CEPED and participated in the seminars of the MobElites Observatory in 2018. Currently, she is working with a multidisciplinary team of researchers on the reconfiguration of higher education in Lebanon and its multiple effects particularly on the social and spatial mobility of Lebanese students.
