She holds the record for being the world's youngest professor.

Sabur's mother, Julie Sabur (born Kessler), worked as a reporter for News12 Long Island until 1995.She married Mohammed Sabur, a Pakistani native, in 1980. Alia, born on February 22, 1989, showed early signs of giftedness. She tested "off the IQ scale," according to an educator who tested her as a first-grader.[1] As a fourth-grader, she left public school and was admitted to State University of New York at Stony Brook at the age of 10, later graduating summa cum laude at 14. She also received a black belt in Tae Kwon Do at the age of 9.
