Meet Dr. Md. Zaved H. Khan
Professor Dr. Md. Zaved H. Khan
Dr. Zaved, is currently a Professor and Chairman of Chemical Engineering and Deputy Director of the Center for Sophisticated and Instrumentation Research Laboratory at the Jashore University of Science and Technology, Jashore-7408, Bangladesh. From 2017 to 2018 and 2013 to 2014 he served as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Henan University, China and Tohoku University, Japan respectively. Previously, he was a Senior Lecturer and Coordinator of the Department of Textile Engineering at Daffodil International University, Dhaka from 2011 to 2012. From 2008-2011, he worked as a Research Associate to GCOE project at Waseda University, Japan. Before that he was a Research Assistant at Advanced Analysis Centre, KIST, Seoul, South Korea. He obtained his higher education at the Waseda University, Japan.
Dr. Khan obtained his higher education at the Waseda University and obtained Doctor of Engineering (D. Eng.) in 2011. Before he got his M. S. Degree from AIT Thailand in 2007. From 1999 to 2005 achieved his B. Sc. and M. Sc. Degree from Islamic University Bangladesh. Throughout his career, Dr. Zaved has demonstrated a commitment to transnational mobility by working on his PhD and other research projects in Japan, South Korea, Bangladesh, China, and Thailand. He has successfully worked on multidisciplinary projects within international research environments and published his results in high-quality journals as articles and presented at many international conferences.
Prof. Khan’s research focuses on field of Nanotechnology and Electrochemistry. Khan’s interests include wearable sensors, microfluidic devices (Lab-on-a-chip), point-of-care clinical development of electrochemical sensing devices for clinical and environmental monitoring, metal-molecule interactions, microfabrication, nanomedicine, biofuel cells, bioelectronic detection of proteins and nucleic acids, self-assembly of nanostructures, nanoparticle-based bioassays, bionanomaterials, new surfaces and interfaces, sensor/recognition coatings, the development of techniques for ultra trace measurements, synthesis of nanoparticles and nanocomposites, nano fertilizer and nano fish feed. Prof. Khan’s contributions have greatly enhanced the power and scope of applications of nanotechnology and have had major impacts upon the fields of nano-biosensors, the use of nanotechnology in agriculture, and upon the growing popularity of electroanalytical techniques.
Dr. Khan has served on the Editorial Boards of many major international journals (in the fields of nanotechnology, electrochemistry, sensors and analytical chemistry) and has been awarded many prestigious awards. He has published over 150 research papers in high impact journals and presented his work in more than 100 international conferences. Prof. Khan has citation over 4700 (https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=4lhxAwgAAAAJ&hl=en) which is highest among all chemistry field in Bangladesh. He is the only professor in Bangladesh who has submitted 6 patents at Bangladesh patent office for his innovation. Dr. Khan has been selected as best researcher of his university from the last few years. His name has been enlisted in the list of world top 2% scientist list from Stanford University and Elsevier for last five years (2020-2024).
He is the recipient of the Bangladesh Academy of Science Gold Medal-2021 in physical science and UGC gold medal-2018 and 2019 for his outstanding research. He is the only chemistry professor in Bangladesh who has received three gold medals from UGC and BAS.
