  • Research Projects and Awards

    Currently, I am working on the pharmacological and phytochemical investigation of tribal plants in the Chittagong Hill track area. Also, investigate the different biological activities of plant extracts and Molecular docking, PASS prediction, QSAR, and ADME/T property analysis of isolated compounds from the various medicinal plants. Fundamentally, my research interest is to develop a bridge between the wet lab and dry lab efforts, especially on Natural Products with therapeutic value. Areas of interest include natural product database development, molecular modeling, cheminformatics-ligand/structure-based virtual screening, lead optimization, ADME/T prediction, protein-protein interactions, peptide-based drug design, and the animal model for pharmacological activity screening. Besides molecular modeling and PASS predictions, I am interested in identifying locally available algal strains with substantial lipid content and high growth rate to select appropriate strains for biofuel production.
