Dr. Md. Shafiul Islam is a associate professor of Applied Chemistry and Chemical Engineering department, Noakhali Science and Technology University, Bangladesh. He received his PhD in analytical chemistry in 2024 from Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia, USA. He received his B.Sc. and MS degrees in Applied Chemistry & Chemical Engineering from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh in 2010 and 2012 respectively. He is the author/co-author of more than 30 international papers and has written six chapters of books as well as participated in more than several conferences and poster presentations. His current research interests include porous bimetallic nanoparticles/high entropy nanomaterials for electrochemical biosensing of redox molecules in blood/plasma and of specific ingredients for food safety, electrocatalysis include hydrogen evolution (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) etc. along with the advanced design of materials for energy storage devices (Zinc-Air Battery).
I have been awarded a PhD in analytical chemistry with research expertise in electrochemistry and material development for next generation sensor & catalyst at Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia, USA. (Google scholar:https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=1zgePKQAAAAJ&hl=en: Citation 341 to date). *My area primarily focuses on electrochemical sensing and biosensing of redox biomolecules found in blood or plasma & electrocatalysis (HER, OER, ORR etc) as well as energy storage. *self motivated and innovative. * Strong writing skills demonstrated by published research articles *Strong oral communication demonstrated by participation in conferences and/or poster presentations Before I got admission in PhD program, I was working as a scientific officer in a government research organization and an assistant professor in a public university thereafter. I carried out research on nanomaterial and /or nanocomposite synthesis and their biomedical application. I also worked on biomaterial for tissue engineering. I have 29 peer reviewed publications including 6 book chapters and 5 conferences/posters to date. I received both undergraduate and MS degree from Applied Chemistry & Chemical engineering dept. from University of Dhaka, the most renowned university of Bangladesh. I have received Dean's honor Award for my outstanding performance in undergraduate and Altria Fellowship in PhD program. I have received training on diverse analytical instruments such as SEM, XPS, FTIR, UV-Visible Spectroscopy, Raman Microscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS),TGA/DTA, UTM, Extrusion/Intrusion Molding, Ball Milling, centrifuge etc. I have completed design and analysis of experiment (DoE) and python basic training.
