Students who follow my research or YouTube channel and interested in collaborating with me, please feel free to contact me via email.

Bachelor Students: If you are a bachelor student in my department and interested in research which are in line with my research interest, I can offer you research training and supervise you later in your thesis. Also, depending on availability of fund, I would love to involve you in research projects.

Master Students: If you are a master student in my department and interested in research which are in line with my research interest, I can offer you research training and supervise you later in your thesis. Also, depending on availability of fund, I would love to involve you in research projects.

PhD Students: If you are a PhD student, doing research in line with my research interests and want to collaborate, I can offer you two alternatives regardless of geographical distance. First, I can co-author with you and provide some supervision via skype. Second, I can host you in my institution for a duration of 1-3 months to work under my supervision. In this case, your main supervisor must agree with your visit and you should have sufficient financial backup for your visit. In case your home institution do not provide financial support, you may apply for finding here.
