My name is Muhammad Umar Ali and I am currently a PhD Student at the University of Waterloo. I currently research how we can engineer methods to record light-matter interactions for imaging tissue at the microscopic scale. I did my undergraduate training at the University of British Columbia with a concentration in bioinformatics.
A wannabe scientist who pretends to know what hes doing and sometime codes too.
Some of my non-academic interests include: literature, entrepeneurship and dungeons & dragons! In an effort to become a more "learned person", I'm trying to write more so I've started a substack blog, please check it out @ umara.substack.com.
