Served Previously

My bachelors degree is from CIIT Islamabad in 2007. In 2008, I proceeded to Cambridge University, UK for masters under Cambridge Commonwealth shared scholarship and Noon educational foundation scholarship. My masters studies were mostly scattered around the field of fluid dynamics. I did my PhD from Imperial College London under CIIT Faculty development program under the kind supervision of Dr. Vahid Shahrezaei. My thesis focused on stochastic sensitivity analysis and specificity analysis of biochemical networks.
