About me

My name is Mehran, and I am pursuing a PhD in Bioengineering at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute. My research focuses on the verification of numerical models of physiological systems. Leveraging my background in Mechanical Engineering and my expertise in coding, I am developing a Python tool that can automatically read and verify numerical models of human cellular systems.

This work is deeply rooted in my Mechanical Engineering foundation, where mechanics studies the physical laws governing moving objects in the real world. Similarly, the human body is a complex physical system that must obey fundamental physical principles. Therefore, the laws of physics and thermodynamics govern every point within our bodies.

In essence, my research applies these universal laws to rigorously assess whether proposed physiological models accurately comply with real-world physics and thermodynamics, ensuring their reliability and validity.

Beyond my research, I have a strong passion for design. I enjoy creating logos, artefacts, and custom-made objects that combine creativity with precision. Whether it’s designing logos for institutes or crafting 3D-printed models and laser-cut pieces, I find great satisfaction in transforming ideas into tangible, well-crafted products. This interest in design complements my engineering work by allowing me to explore both analytical and creative problem-solving.
