I am a third-year Ph.D. student at the College of Information Studies (iSchool), University of Maryland, College Park. I work with Professor Niklas Elmqvist and am a member of the Human-Computer Interaction Lab. I study how interactive systems can help people use AI reliably and get benefitted in the process. This typically results in novel interactive systems, data visualization, and data sonification techniques for promoting creativity, learning, and sensemaking. I obtained a Master's in Computer Science from Stony Brook University where I worked and still collaborate with Professor Klaus Mueller. I also collaborate with Professor Syed Billah (Penn State) regularly. I obtained a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. You can call me Naimul (pronunciation: na-ei-mul).
