Hello, I'm Ahmed Shalaby
I don't like self-definition that much, but let's say, incompletely and temporarily,
I'm a third year PhD student in
Theoretical Computer Science and DNA computing
at the Hamilton Institute, Maynooth University, Ireland.
I work under the supervision of Professor Damien Woods
in the TAPDANCE research group.
My current research focuses on analyzing
the statistical thermodynamic properties of DNA systems
through the design of efficient algorithms
that predict their behavior at chemical equilibrium.
I'm also interested in stochastic kinetic analysis of DNA folding, and
sometimes in conducting wet-lab experiments.
Previously during my Master's, my research
focused on computer vision and how to use deep
learning to build more efficient authentication
systems for IoT environments based on iris recognition.
