Hello! I am Md. Mustak Khan.  I am currently pursuing my MS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Chittagong. My research primarily focuses on Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as a model organism to study the effects of plant-derived compounds and synthetic molecules. Alongside this, I maintain strong interests in Microbiology, Plant research, and Bioinformatics. 

I work as a research assistant at the Laboratory of Applied Bioscience, where I gain hands-on experience in laboratory techniques and collaborative scientific inquiry. My work with C. elegans and microbial systems has strengthened my expertise in experimental design and biological research. I am also involved with the Laboratory of Food Science and Nutraceutical, where we analyze the nutritional composition and antioxidant properties of plant-derived samples such as seaweeds and dates. 

Previously, I was involved as a research intern at CHIRAL Bangladesh and later joined its aiHealth Lab division, where I gained foundational knowledge in machine learning and artificial intelligence, particularly in their applications to public health and healthcare challenges." 

Additionally, I am a founding member of the BioPC—Bioinformatics Lab of Research and Training. Currently, I serve as a research project lead, where I lead multiple projects focused on computational approaches to biological research, including Drug design, Vaccine development, Cancer Bioinformatics, and Public Health. 

Through these diverse experiences, I have built an interdisciplinary research profile that bridges experimental biology with computational science. I am deeply motivated to continue exploring innovative research opportunities and make meaningful contributions to the scientific community.
