Biography

Dr. Jabia Mostofa Chowdhury is a tenure-track assistant professor of Electrical Engineering at Texas A&M University- Texarkana (TAMUT). Dr. Jabia completed her master's in and Ph.D. from the University of Memphis, TN, and then joined as a postdoctoral associate at the University at Buffalo for one year before joining TAMUT. Dr. Jabia’s research interest is computational modeling and studying human diseases, especially the diseases of the human eyes i.e. Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma.   

Professional Experience

Dr. Jabia joined as a Postdoctoral associate at the University at Buffalo from May 2022 to July 2023 and worked in Biomedicine and Pharmaceutics” after the completion of her Ph.D.
