Alhamdulillah, happy to share that our paper has been published in Sustainable Chemistry One World, a Scopus-indexed Elsevier journal on ScienceDirect.
Started my PhD journey just 5 months ago, and Alhamdulillah, already a paper out! Truly grateful for this blessing.
This review focuses on smart bio-reactor systems for CO₂ capture and conversion, integrating IoT-AI sensing, microbial biochemistry, and predictive control for cleaner and more sustainable cities.
My heartfelt gratitude to my supervisor for his constant guidance, encouragement, and support.

I’m pleased to share that I have successfully completed the certification course on Satellite Data Products for Climate Change Applications.

This training enhanced my understanding of satellite data handling and its applications in air pollution assessment, environmental monitoring, climate change analysis, and weather forecasting. It also provided valuable insights into the use of remote sensing products such as MODIS and other Earth observation datasets for analyzing atmospheric and environmental changes.

I’m truly happy to have conducted a Research Methodology session with undergraduate and postgraduate students from University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh.

It’s encouraging to see such strong commitment to sustainability and the Sustainable Development Goals in action.

Through their platform, YOUReach - Youth in Research and Action for Social Change, these students are actively working towards climate betterment in Rajshahi.

Always happy to support such meaningful initiatives. In line with Sunway University’s commitment to sustainability, I look forward to contributing and collaborating wherever possible for a greener, more resilient future.

These dedicated students in Rajshahi are not only passionate but are working on research and meaningful action for a betterment. It’s inspiring to witness their commitment and energy.

Grateful for the opportunity to engage with them and conduct their class.

Through interactive quizzes, one-to-many discussions, and real-life examplesbecame more than just theory it became an experience. From understanding problems to discovering meaningful insights, every moment was about learning by doing.

Grateful for the engaging sessions, knowledge sharing and the energy that made research feel exciting and practical. From curiosity to clarity — this workshop on brought research to life.

See you guys from Rajshahi University!

Looking back, a few things really made the difference to land on a full Scholarship fast tracked PhD -
– Maintaining a strong CGPA
– Getting involved in research and publications
– Gaining hands-on experience in my field
– Staying genuinely passionate about what I do

But if I’m being real, the biggest factor was finding the right supervisor and approaching them the right way. That changed everything.

I’m going to start sharing more about my PhD journey, research life, and what I learn along the way! Hopefully it helps someone else who’s aiming for the same path.
