Dr. Md. Moksedul Momin is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Chattogram Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (CVASU), Bangladesh, a position he has held since April 2023. He previously served as a Lecturer (2015–2017) and Assistant Professor (2017–2023) in the same department. Dr. Momin obtained his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree in 2011 and Master of Science (MS) in Animal Breeding and Genetics in 2014 from CVASU. He earned his PhD in Statistical Genetics from the University of South Australia (UniSA), Australia.
His research focuses on quantitative genetics, statistical genetics, genomics, and the prediction of complex traits and diseases in both humans and animals. His work has contributed to advancing the understanding of cross-population genetic architecture and improving methods for genomic prediction. As part of his research, he has developed several widely used R packages, including r2redux, R2ROC, MSML, and GxEprs, which support genetic and genomic analyses and have gained recognition within the research community.
Currently, Dr. Momin is on study leave from CVASU and is working as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for Molecular Bioscience (IMB), The University of Queensland (UQ), Australia (https://about.uq.edu.au/experts/52378), where his research focuses on statistical genetics and multi-omics approaches for understanding complex human traits and diseases. In addition, he holds an Adjunct Research Associate position at the College of Health, Adelaide University, Australia (https://researchers.adelaide.edu.au/profile/moksedul.momin).
Through his academic and research activities, Dr. Momin continues to contribute to the development of innovative statistical and computational methods in genetics and genomics, fostering interdisciplinary collaborations across human and animal health research.
