EXPLORING SCIENCE THROUGH RESEARCH
During my studies at Jinnah university for women, I worked on some impressive academic projects, including the manufacturing of seaweed-based cosmetic products (face pack and shampoo), bio-based pesticides and fertilizer production, and biogas from lignocellulose biomass. I completed my thesis on Probiotic chocolate with enhancing antioxidant activity and lowering cholesterol levels. I became more curious about health science and research with the results of them.
SEAWEED BASED FACE PACK
Manufacture the face pack from seaweed. Seaweeds is marine algae with full of minerals and mainly used in cosmetic industries.
ORGANIC FERTILIZER
Organic fertilizer is made from natural materials like compost, manure, and waste material, enriching soil without harmful chemicals.
BIO-BASED PESTICIDES
Prepares bio pesticides from natural substances. Bio pesticides target specific pests, reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable agriculture by avoiding harmful chemicals.
BIO-GAS
Production of biogas from lignocellulosic biomass. Biogas from lignocellulosic biomass is produced through the anaerobic digestion. This process breaks down complex organic compounds into methane, a renewable energy source, while also reducing waste and contributing to environmental sustainability.
PROBIOTIC CHOCOLATE
Prepared probiotic chocolate with enhancing antioxidant activity and lowering cholesterol levels. Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria that support gut health. When probiotic added as bioactive compounds in chocolate, this chocolate can be further enhanced to boost antioxidant activity and reduce cholesterol levels.

FROM SCIENCE TO DIGITAL MARKETING & SEO
I’m expanding my skill set by pursuing a short course in Digital Marketing and SEO where I am learning about Trello, Buffer, meta ads, google ads, content creation, and social media marketing. I am particularly interested in how digital tools and strategies can be used to promote work on social media. It has helped me explore how I can combine my science background with creative digital tools in healthcare awareness, scientific research, and innovation.

CERTIFICATIONS & SEMINARS
Along the way, I attended different seminars and webinars that enriched my understanding of key scientific and industrial concepts. Notably, The Science of Animal Cell Culture. Another session, Research viz-a-viz the Pharma Industry. I took part in specialized training sessions focused on ISO and IPM. I also attended a career guidance session titled Applied & Biological Sciences. These experiences collectively broadened my perspective and prepared me for multidisciplinary collaboration in research and industry.
The Science of Animal Cell Culture
The Science of Animal Cell Culture provided valuable insights into the techniques and applications of cell culture in biomedical research. Another session
Research viz-a-viz the Pharma Industry
Research viz-a-viz the Pharma Industry, offered a comprehensive perspective on how scientific research converts into pharmaceutical innovation and development.
Career guidance session on Applied & Biological Sciences
I also attended a career guidance session titled Applied & Biological Sciences, which helped me better understand the diverse career paths and opportunities available within the biological sciences sector.
Training sessions on ISO & IPM
I took part in specialized training sessions focused on ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IPM (Integrated Pest Management), which enhanced my awareness of quality control, regulatory compliance, and sustainable practices in scientific and industrial environments.
