Dr. Shamima Akhter is a Lecturer and researcher in the field of Physical Chemistry, with interdisciplinary expertise spanning analytical chemistry, nanochemistry, electrochemistry, and materials science. She obtained her Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Physical Chemistry from the University of Malaya, Malaysia, where she developed extensive expertise in the design and fabrication of advanced electrochemical sensing platforms and functional nanomaterials. Her research focuses on the development of next-generation electrochemical sensing technologies for the sensitive and selective detection of pharmaceutical compounds, environmental pollutants, carcinogenic agents, and other clinically relevant analytes. Her current research interests include the fabrication and application of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, flexible and wearable sensors, 3D-printed sensors, and molecularly imprinted sensors (MIS). She is particularly interested in integrating nanotechnology with electrochemical sensing to develop rapid, cost-effective, and highly sensitive analytical devices for healthcare, environmental monitoring, and food safety applications. Beyond sensing technologies, Dr. Akhter has a strong research interest in renewable energy and sustainable energy storage systems, particularly in the development of advanced materials for hydrogen production and energy storage applications. Her work aims to contribute to clean energy technologies by designing innovative nanostructured materials
