About
Dr. Aman Ullah is an Assistant Professor at the School of Systems Biology, George Mason University, with affiliations in the Neuroscience Program. He holds a Ph.D. in Biophysics from Ohio University (2011) and specializes in multi-scale computational biomedicine.
- Education: Ph.D. in Biophysics, Ohio University (2011)
Research Focus: Dr. Ullah's work integrates computational modeling and systems biology to study calcium signaling in cardiac and neurological diseases. Key areas include:
- Cardiac calcium dynamics in arrhythmias caused by genetic mutations
- Biophysical models of α7 nicotinic receptors in epilepsy
- Computational approaches to neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
Publication Trends: His recent work spans cardiac arrhythmia mechanisms, computational modeling of neural receptors, and thermal dynamics in biomedical nanofluids. Earlier studies focus on calcium signaling in oocytes and cardiomyocytes, with a shift toward neurodegenerative disease modeling in later years.
Teaching: Dr. Ullah teaches systems biology, covering mathematical modeling, signaling networks, and physiological modeling (e.g., the heart as a case study).
