About Me
Hello (اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُم)! My name is Muhammad Kabir and I am thrilled to introduce myself as a postdoctoral researcher in the field of Bioinformatics. I received my bachelor’s degree in computer science from Islamia College Peshawar, in 2012, and the master’s degree in Computer Science from Abdul Wali Khan University Mardan, Pakistan, in 2016. I completed my PhD degree in Computer Science and Technology from the School of Computer Science and Engineering, Nanjing University of Science and Technology (NJUST), Nanjing, China. I served as an Assistant Professor at the School of Systems and Technology - Department of Computer Science, University of Management and Technology (UMT), Lahore, Pakistan for 2.5 years. Currently, I am working as a researcher in the Protein Structure and Bioinformatics Group, Biomedical Center (BMC), Lund University, Sweden. I am keen on immersing myself in a stimulating research environment, aiming to enhance my existing skills while acquiring new ones to remain current in the dynamic field of bioinformatics. In my current postdoctoral research, I am dedicated to advancing machine learning methods specifically tailored for the identification and classification of disease-causing genetic variations, with the ultimate goal of contributing to both research and clinical applications.
