I am Azmine Toushik Wasi, a 4th year undergrad in Industrial and Production Engineering at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh.
My core research focuses on exploring Biomedical AI and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), with an emphasis on structural biology, neuro, therapeutic, and molecular ML domains. In addition to that, my other research interests include interdisciplinary research in Human-Centered AI (HCI, HAI) with NLP (Bias and Fairness) and AI in Industrial Engineering. I am looking forward to pursue a PhD in Fall 2025 to continue my research.
I working with Prof. Dong-Kyu Chae (HYU) as a visiting researcher on GNNs, MedAI, and NLP-HCI. I'm also collaborating with Riashat Islam (PhD, McGill and Mila) at Mila Quebec on molecular ML (Drugs and Proteins) and generative AI. In parallel, I collaborate with Prof. Min Xu (CMU) on biomolecules. I'm an active contributor in Cohere for AI Community. I founded CIOL to mentor young researchers, collaborating with Prof. Ahsan (OU) and Prof. Bappy (LSU) on using GNNs and digital twins for industrial and medical applications.
My research has been published in prestigious venues such as ICLR, COLING, ACCV, CSCW, and workshops of NeurIPS, AAAI, ACL, EMNLP, ICML and CHI, with ongoing reviews in ICLR, TCBB, COLING, IJPR among others. I regularly serve as reviewer for top ML conferences (ICLR, ACL, EMNP, CSCW, CHI) and as program chair/committee for workshops in top conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, ACL, MICCAI). I am also a Kaggle Grandmaster (3rd GM in Bangladesh). Additionally, I have 3 years of experience in AI-integrated product/content automation, and product and project management.
I am a quick learner and highly adaptable, capable of leading projects and teams. I enjoy exploring new topics, sharing knowledge, refining existing skills, experimenting with new techniques, and challenging my capabilities.
