Dear SIGARAB community,

I am very happy to share that I have been awarded my PhD at INSEA (Morocco).

My work, entitled “Leveraging Transformers and Data-Centric Approaches for Arabic Dialects Processing: Focus on Moroccan Arabic”, has greatly benefited from the exchanges, collaborations, and support within the SIGARAB community. I sincerely thank everyone I had the opportunity to meet or work with during this journey.

I would also like to express special thanks to the ArabicNLP conference, which was a real booster for my research on Arabic dialects. The feedback and discussions there played a key role in shaping my work.

Thank you all for the support and inspiration.

Best regards,
