Bio

Headshot of Jubayer

Hi, I am Jubayer, a highly motivated biomedical research enthusiasts with a Master of Science in Microbiology focus on public health and health data science. Research experience designing and implementing projects for biomedical data analysis (including next‑generation sequencing, RNA‑seq , and ssRNA‑seq ). I am interested in applying machine learning/deep learning tools and techniques in the context of disease diagnosis and large data analytics for public health while focusing on bridging the gap between computational and experimental laboratories through highly engaging and fruitful collaborations

Python is my primary language for data analysis and machine learning. I also have a basic understanding of R, Julia, SPSS, QGIS, and SQL.

This page highlights my teaching and research projects. Please reach out if you want to collaborate or have questions.
