Biography

Muhammad Ramzan Khan obtained his Ph.D from Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, Cologne, Germany. He currently holds as an Associate Professor in National Centre for Bioinformatics at Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad, Pakistan. His research focus mainly on Genome informatics (NGS applications including RNA-seq, ChIP-seq etc.) of plants for expression variations and comparative genomics for unveiling the adaptive evolution, Functional genomics using CRISPR/Cas9/dCas9 genome editing tools for enhancement of plant productivity, NGS applications in forensic science.
