Educational institutions are the beating hearts of our societies. Universities are entrusted with the vital task of preparing the next generation of thinkers, inventors, businessmen and citizens. As such, I consider teaching to be an immensely important profession.
Current Courses
1. Computational Materials Design
Winter Semesters (6 ECTS, Module No. 41211)
All the matter in the world is ultimately a material, and all this wondrous complexity results from the combination of some basic elements. This course will teach students how the behaviour of a material stems from its constituent elements and how that behaviour can be predicted using theory and simulations. Students will also learn how to design new materials that are highly attractive for applications in semiconductor, optics, lasers and renewable energy industries.

2. Seminar on Artificial Intelligence for Biomedical Applications
Winter Semesters (6 ECTS, Module No. 41212)
Recent months have seen an explosive interest in generative artificial intelligence (AI) models like GPT. While these models promise to transform the economy, they require unsustainably large amounts of energy to operate. To address this, researchers are developing a potentially breakthrough technology called ‘neuromorphic computing’ which mimics the biological brain. Neuromorphic computing can deliver sustainable AI and have significant impact on healthcare applications like personalized medicine, wearable health trackers, wearable diagnostic devices, portable brain scanners etc. This seminar will introduce students to the latest research in this field.

3. Seminar on Quantum Bio-Sensing
Summer Semesters (6 ECTS, Module No. 41236)
Due to its high sensing precision, fidelity, speed, and miniaturization, quantum sensing shows significant promise towards applications in biotechnology and neuroscience. In the field of neuroscience, quantum sensing shows particular promise towards the realization of previously inaccessible, high-resolution, non-invasive scans of the living brain. This course will impart to the students an introductory understanding of the cutting-edge field of quantum sensing and its highly promising applications in biomedicine. Students will read and discuss the latest and important research papers in the field of quantum sensing and biomedicine.
