Biography

I am currently serving as a PostDoc Research Fellow in Mendes Research Group (at UConn Health, University of Connecticut, USA) where I am working on the development of cloud-based computational tools for systems biology.

Before starting a PostDoc research, I worked as an Assistant Professor in the School of Science and Engineering at Habib University, Karachi, Pakistan. In past, I worked as a Lecturer, Research Assistant, Hardware Engineer, and Digital Design Engineer in different organizations based in Middle East, Asia, Europe and USA.

During my PhD (obtained from the Technical University of Danmark), I worked on a future emerging technology in the domain of Design Automation for Synthetic Biology. One of the objectives of synthetic biology is to replace electronic-based medical devices with the systems-on-cell based on genetic circuits. My contribution in this field was to develop methods, algorithms and tools for the analysis, verification and synthesis of genetic logic circuits. Further details can be seen here.
