Biography
My PhD research focuses on the performance of cardio-metabolic (CVD and DM) risk prediction models among the Bangladeshi population along with developing risk scores tailored and recalibrated to the contemporary circumstances in Bangladesh. Data from BELIEVE Study along with other globally relevant datasets are being used to recalibrate the prediction models. The research is funded by the Gates-Cambridge Trust.
