Zaheer Ahmed
Visiting Scientist, Doctoral Researcher
Research Group: Metabolic Bone Diseases
My research focuses on rare skeletal anomalies, particularly how genetic variants shape congenital bone and limb malformations. I work on uncovering the molecular mechanisms and pathways driving these disorders, aiming to contribute to precision medicine strategies for their early diagnosis and treatment. Beyond the lab, I am a co-founder and volunteer with the Mehrgarh Research Institute, a research collective from Balochistan dedicated to advancing education and knowledge production as tools for social impact and empowerment locally and globally.
