WORK HISTORY
Research Fellow @Zhejiang University
Hangzhou, CN
I am developing a novel phenylalanine biosensor for rapid, point-of-care detection of Phenylketonuria (PKU). This sensor utilizes the cell-free protein synthesis technique to quantify phenylalanine—a key biomarker for PKU.

SKILLS
ABOUT FAISAL NAZIR
I am a biomedical engineer by training and a PhD researcher in nanoscience at the University of Bologna, working at the intersection of engineering, nanomaterials, and biotechnology. My journey began with biomedical device development and project management, and has evolved into designing sustainable paper-based biosensors and nanomaterial-enabled diagnostics for health and environmental monitoring. With publications in top journals such as Analytical Chemistry and Langmuir, I bring international research experience from Italy, China, Kazakhstan, and Pakistan. My expertise spans biosensor design, nanomaterial characterization, AFM, microbiology, and AI-driven data analysis. Passionate about translating nanoscale innovation into real-world impact, I aim to bridge academia and industry by developing next-generation diagnostic tools that support clean water, healthcare accessibility, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
