I am a young research enthusiast who loves to learn and contribute more and more to mankind. I received my PhD in Clinical Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of Kumamoto, Japan in 2020. After completing my PhD, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research fellow at Jichi Medical University, Japan. As a postdoc at Jichi Medical University I researched on bacteriophages or phages genetics aimed to manipulate its appropriate gene utilizing CRISPR-Cas based systems. With more than six years of working experience in pharmaceutical sciences and molecular biology of resistant bacterial infection and bacteriophages, currently, I am working as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB). My present research at UMB is centered on the genetic and non-genetic (epigenetic) mechanisms of hyperglycemia-induced birth defects and dysfunction of the reproductive system to explore the intracellular signaling involved in birth defect formation in diabetic pregnancy. Additionally, I worked as a Quality Control officer at Novartis (Bangladesh) Limited. I enjoy exercising and spending time with my family during my leisure time.
