IMS is based on my PhD research and Post-Doctoral work at Caltech. The company is bringing simple, user-friendly, analytical sensing products for personal health monitoring. As a first product, we have developed the world's smallest continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to decrease the burden of the diabetes pandemic.My role as a founder and CEO is to manage the company's technical and strategic direction. I am working with some of the smartest people to develop this solution that will reach millions in need.My technical responsibility is to use my knowledge of nanotechnology to optimize sensor design and fabrication. I am also responsible for the system-level integration of different technologies. During this work, I achieved the following:1. Develop system architecture and product roadmap by incorporating feedback from users, clinicians, regulatory experts, and manufacturing experts.2. Develop processes for sensor manufacturing using Semiconductor technologies 3. Develop a smart transmitter design4. Validate the system by rigorous testing 5. Manage funding plan to enable efficient execution of the commercialization plan

Newport Beach, Ca, Us

I served as an advisor to startups in the Octane OC network. I advised the startups on various aspects, including grant writing, preparing presentations, and technology development.

I worked at ITU, Lahore as Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering from December 2015 till December 2016. This is where I developed the low-cost ventilator device i.e. the 'Ambulator'. My passion for research and teaching is always there and I love to connect with students and mentor and nurture them.
