Biography

Dr.Tanvir Alam’s work has been centered on biomedical discoveries using artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques in big data platform. His current research focusing on long non-coding RNAs, short RNAs, and their transcription regulation to understand how these genes are involved in different diseases and their function in cellular process using next-generation sequencing data.

He is also interested in protein-protein interactions, which are involved in cell adhesion and cancer metastasis. He is also developing knowledge-based methods to understand the genotype-phenotype relationship.
