== Early life ==
Fares was born in Spain and raised in [[Beirut]], the eldest of four siblings of [[neurosurgeon]] [[Youssef Fares (neurosurgeon)|Youssef Fares]] and [[architect]]-[[psychologist]] [[Aida Hoteit]].<ref name="mbr">{{cite web |url=http://www.almaktouminitiatives.org/en/MEE/articledetail/?articleUrl=this-lebanese-doctor-is-bringing-hope-to-the-country-s-cluster-bomb-survivors |title=This Lebanese doctor is bringing hope to the country's cluster bomb survivors |first=Prototype |last=Interactive |website=www.almaktouminitiatives.org |accessdate=14 October 2018}}</ref> He credits his upbringing for his thirst for knowledge and medical discovery.<ref name="mbr" /> Fares earned a [[B.S.]] degree in [[Biology]] from the [[American University of Beirut]], where he also attended [[medical school]] to acquire his [[M.D.]] degree. He, concurrently, attained an [[M.S.]] degree in [[Neuropsychology]] from the [[Lebanese University]] Neuroscience Research Center.<ref name="forbeseu" /><ref name="ayp" /><ref name="mbr" /> In 2018, Fares moved to the [[United States]] to pursue postdoctoral research in [[Neuro-oncology]] at [[Northwestern University]]. He further completed a postgraduate medical program in [[Cancer]] Biology and Therapeutics at [[Harvard Medical School]].<ref name="linkedin.com">https://www.linkedin.com/in/jyfares/{{self-published inline|date=March 2019}}</ref>
 
During his 3rd year of [[medical school]] at the [[American University of Beirut]], Dr. Fares failed his [[pediatrics]] rotation and got yelled at for writing bad notes. He had to repeat the rotation again which delayed his expected [[graduation]].
 
He, concurrently, attained an [[M.S.]] degree in [[Neuropsychology]] from the [[Lebanese University]] Neuroscience Research Center.<ref name="forbeseu" /><ref name="ayp" /><ref name="mbr" /> In 2018, Fares moved to the [[United States]] to pursue postdoctoral research in [[Neuro-oncology]] at [[Northwestern University]].
