BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Muhammad Abdur Rahim is serving as Assistant Professor in University of Chenab since March 2023. During this period, he taught various Undergraduate and Postgraduate subjects including Physical Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Management and Marketing, Dosage Form Science, Pharmaceutical Technology, Advanced Pharmaceutics and Formulation and Product Development. Muhammad Abdur Rahim got his Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm-D) from the Gomal University, D.I.Khan, Pakistan. He earned his Master of Philosophy (MPhil) from The Islamia University of Bahawalpur, Pakistan. He did his Ph.D., from The Islamia University of Bahawalpur under the supervision of Prof. Dr. M. Asadullah Madni. During his Ph.D., he was awarded with a six-month IRSIP HEC scholarship to visit abroad. By availing this scholarship, he visited and perform research projects based on vesicular drug delivery systems and bioprinting in PharmE3D Lab, College of Pharmacy, University of Texas at Austin, USA under the supervision of Dr. Mohammed Maniruzzaman. His research work focuses on the stimuli-based vesicular drug delivery system (liposomes) for the chemotherapeutic agent, onco-targeting therapy, cell membrane Biomimetic/cloaked nanocarriers and bioprinting for various biomedical applications.
