CIE Dept. in association with KIKX presents Seminar on "Systems Biology: Placing Cells under Control" by Prof. Aamer Iqbal Bhatti, Professor of CIE Dept., on Wednesday, 16 OCT 2024, at 2pm, in Bld. 22 room 134.

Speaker:

Dr. Aamer Iqbal Bhatti

Professor

Control and Instrumentation Engineering Department

King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals

Dhahran, Saudi Arabia

Abstract:

The talk is about the systems biology-based research themes envisaged by the research group of Prof Aamer Iqbal Bhatti. Thus addressing the question of how Systems Scientists may contribute to cellular biology by imparting system perspective to the holistic treatment of both intracellular and intercellular processes.

Speaker Bio :

Prof. Aamer Iqbal Bhatti is the founding Head of the Research Group CASPR (Controls and Signal Processing Research). He has published over ninety journal publications with an impact factor of over 300 and h-index of 29. He contributed to the analysis and intervention design for the p53 pathway, Wnt pathway, and its cross-talk with the cell cycle. He showed that the oscillations in p53 are due to Hopf bifurcation. He also introduced the novel use of binary state space models in pathway analysis and intervention design. Currently, he is working on applying nonlinear observer theory to brain signals to better understand epileptic seizures.
