PhD Student
Education
- PhD, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Florida International University, 2014 – 18
- M.S. in Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering,Purdue University Northwest, Hammond, IN, 2008 – 10
- B.Sc. in Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Engineering (EEE), Chittagong University of Engineering & Technology (CUET), Bangladesh, 2002-07
Current Research Interests
- Micro-fuel cell sensor
- Mathematical modeling for the detection of volatile compounds
- We designed, characterized, and fabricated proton exchange membrane micro-fuel cell (PEMFC) sensors for the detection of transdermal volatile organic compounds (VOCs, e.g. ethanol, acetone, and isoflurane) for the point-of-care (POC) diagnosis of the physiological conditions of humans. My research addressed an enduring problem in the biosensing field — the importance of eliminating interfering signals toward the precise calibration and detection of these VOCs in a POC multivariate environment.
