Envisioning a future where wearable bioelectronics transforms healthcare with continuous monitoring, early diagnosis, and personalized treatments.
Hello, I'm Pukar Maharjan, Ph.D
I'm a passionate researcher dedicated to advancing computational methods and their applications in solving complex real-world problems. With over 8 years of experience in machine learning and data analytics, I bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical innovation.
My research focuses on creating biocompatible, flexible, and scalable solutions for real-time physiological monitoring—merging disciplines like nanomaterials, soft electronics, and 3D printing. Whether developing e-tattoo EEG systems or designing energy-harvesting wearables, I aim to bridge the gap between innovation and real-world health challenges.
