"Every complex problem has a simple solution", I do believe this. Making the world more habitable is one of my many dreams.As a current PhD student in Chemical and Biological Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), I have the privilege of being co-advised by two esteemed professors, Dr. Jonathan Dordick and Dr. Mattheos Koffas, at the Center for Biotechnology and Interdisciplinary Studies (CBIS). Driven by my passion for sustainable solutions for a better future using Biomolecular Engineering, Synthetic Biology, AI/ML tools, I joined the Dordick and Koffas Labs. Currently, I am working on monoclonal antibody formulation and stabilization as part of downstream processing, in collaboration with BMS. Prior to this project, I contributed to developing a carbonic anhydrase fusion protein to enhance sustainable bioproduction by capturing CO₂ directly from the airPrior to joining RPI, I completed my undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). After graduation, I worked as a research officer at the International Center for Diarrheal Diseases, Bangladesh (ICDDR,B) in collaboration with Stanford University, where I led a team that successfully improved the brick manufacturing process in Bangladesh to promote clean air and better health. During my undergrad at BUET, I researched on nutraceuticals and generation of power from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). I have also performed some environmental project on waste water treatment and air pollution control of various industries. Whenever I get a free times I just sit down to write. I love to write poems, stories, memories, article, etc. on various topics.
