I am a graduate in Aerospace Engineering from the National University of Science and Technology (Pakistan). I joined the FluidFrame Lab at the Mechanical Engineering Department at Bilkent University in September 2020 under the TUBITAK funded project “Self-assembly of complex shaped active particles in controlled optical potentials”. Through this project we will gain (i) an understanding of the self-organization of complex shaped active particles, (ii) predictive power of self-assembly mechanisms, and (iii) control over the mechanism itself due to the reversibility of the process, allowing us to tackle key challenges of great technological and economic impact such as the design and fabrication of biomimetic materials, bioremediation, and chemical sensing. The main aim of my work is to mathematically and numerically model non-spherical active Janus particles driven by different types of optical potentials.
