BIOGRAPHY

I am Waqar Mahmood Dar. I did my matriculation from Universal Model School Gujrat and intermediate from Govt. Zamindar College Gujrat. After intermediate I completed my BS hons in statistics from University of Gujrat With research work in neuroimaging. I got my first research paper published in 2016 titled “Identification and classification of voxels of human brain for rewardless-related decision making using ANN technique” in a Journal bearing impact factor 5.573. I started my teaching career from 2015 joining superior college Gujrat as Lecturer statistics. I served 5 years in superior college Gujrat along with visiting faculty experience in Superior University, University Of Gujrat, University of Lahore Gujrat Campus and Govt. College of Commerce. In 2020, I Joined University of Sialkot as Lecturer Statistics on regular basis. I did my MPhil. Statistics in 2018 with research work in neuroimaging. I published another article in 2018 entitled “Classification of Alzheimer’s Disease Stages: An Approach Using PCA-Based Algorithm” in a journal with impact factor 2.035. In Oct. 2021, I joined University of Lahore Gujrat Campus as Lecturer Biostatistics in department of Radiological Sciences and Medical Imaging. I have a true passion of working in medical imaging department because it is most Relevant with my research expertise. I strive to create a community of learners that nurtures this growth in a positive environment. Other than teaching, my interests are in data analysis of biomedical data, artificial Intelligence, machine learning algorithms.
