Safee Ullah Chaudhary received his Ph.D. in 2013 from the Department of Bio. & Brain Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), South Korea. His research was focused on the computational modelling of multiscale cancer systems biology. He took an agents-based (multi-agent) approach to model tumorigenesis as described in the Warburg Effect. His work also led to the development of Electronic Cancer System (ELECANS), which is a next-generation modelling platform for applications in cancer systems biology. In 2014, he joined the Department of Biology at LUMS where he is involved in the development of a GPU-based cancer modelling and simulation pipeline by leveraging the CUDA Toolkit. He is also keenly interested in investigating the oncological manifestations of the Warburg Effect during cell death.
