Dr. Md Joynal Abedin is a postdoctoral fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital, a founding member of Mass General Brigham, and Harvard Medical School. After completing his bachelor's degree in electrical and electronic engineering, Dr. Abedin pursued PhD training in bioengineering at Lehigh University. At Lehigh, he applied his computational and signal processing background to bioengineering. Dr. Abedin gained extensive knowledge of neurological disorders, including epilepsy and glioblastoma. He expanded his expertise in computational modeling to include computational neuroscience, neural engineering, advanced sensory systems, and advanced cell biology. Dr. Abedin also acquired wet lab skills, such as dissociated primary cell culture, organotypic slice culture, tissue engineering, neurological disease modeling, high-throughput assay development, high-throughput drug screening, microfluidics, optogenetics, calcium imaging, microelectrode recording, and neuronal impedance spectroscopy. Currently, as part of his postdoctoral training at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Dr. Abedin is working on elucidating circuit disruptions in Alzheimer’s disease in the laboratory of Dr. Ksenia Kastanenka, an Alzheimer’s disease expert of over 12 years. In addition, Dr. Abedin plans to apply his computational expertise to gain further insight into the circuit disruptions underlying Alzheimer's disease.
