Dr NASEEB AHMED, Siddiqui, Research Scientist, email: naseeb01@nus.edu.sg

Background
I hold a Diploma and a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from India, followed by a Master's by Research in bird wing aerodynamics at IIUM, Malaysia. I then received a scholarship to pursue a PhD at Ontario Tech University, Canada, specializing in the aerodynamics of three-dimensional bluff bodies.

I have worked as a Research Fellow at the Singapore Institute of Technology, focusing on medical fluid flows, and currently serve as a Research Scientist in the Aerodynamics and Propulsion Group at Temasek Laboratories.

My research specializes in turbulence and advanced flow control techniques for aerial, ground, and underwater vehicles, as well as biomedical and nature-inspired flows. Leveraging both experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), I explore and optimize complex flow phenomena to advance engineering and scientific applications
