About

Hello! My name is Mohammad and I'm a physicist working in the a government R&D lab since 2011 as a scientist. I have worked and spearheaded several research projects in materials physics, semiconductors and photonics. I have co-authored several peer-reviewed research papers including an independent research project which culminated in a conference paper as a single author. Skilled in scientific research inluding, ideas generation, technology scouting, literature review and technical/scientific writing. When I'm not doing research. I'm an angel-investor in technology startups. I have invested in several energy/biotech startups. This requires additional skills that I have learned over the past few years which include. Startups scouting, market/technology validation and due diligence.
