Hi, I am Azmine Toushik Wasi! I completed HTGAA 2025 with the BioClub Tokyo node as a committed listener, and I am deeply interested in exploring synthetic biology and the ways computational design can be brought to life. Following the program, I joined the Global TA team, where I contribute to research, teaching, curriculum development, and other academic activities as a teaching assistant.

Short Bio:
I am Azmine Toushik Wasi, a final year engineering student at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh. My core research focuses on exploring Biomedical AI and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), with an emphasis on structural biology, neuro, therapeutic, and molecular ML domains. In addition to that, my other research interests include interdisciplinary research in Agentic AI (LLM Agents and more) and Human-Centered AI (HCI, HAI) with NLP (Clinical NLP, Bias and Fairness in AI).
I'm collaborating with Riashat Islam (Microsoft Research) on molecular ML, generative AI, and reasoning, and with Prof. Alshehri (KSU) on health informatics, GNNs, AI Agents, and GenAI as a visiting researcher. Previously, I have worked with Prof. Chae (HYU) on GNNs, Drug Discovery, and NLP-HCI-HAI and Prof. Min Xu (CMU) on biomolecules. I also collaborate actively with researchers from Cohere Labs (formerly, Cohere for AI) and Harvard University. I'm a dedicated participant in HTGAA 2025 (MIT Media Lab), with regular assignments and final projects (protein engineering). In CIOL, I collaborate with Prof. AMM Mukaddes (SUST), Prof. Ahsan (OU) and Prof. Bappy (LSU) on GNNs, AI Agents and digital twins for industrial and medical applications.
My research has been published in prestigious venues such as ICLR, WWW, COLING, DASFAA, ACCV, CSCW, and workshops of NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, AAAI, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL and CHI, with ongoing reviews in several A*/A conferences and Q1 Journals. I regularly serve as reviewer and program chair/committee member for workshops in top AI-ML conferences. I am also a Kaggle Grandmaster (3rd GM in Bangladesh). Additionally, I have 3 years of experience in AI-integrated product/content automation, and product and project management.
