Mohd Wasif Khan is a computational biology student investigating the role of genetics and microorganisms in Early Childhood Caries (ECC). Another focus of his research is to identify the associations between taste genetics and oral microbiome in healthy individuals and ECC patients. For his research, he uses statistical techniques like meta-analysis, mediation analysis, and advanced machine learning methods. Through his research, he expects to get more insight into the pathogenesis of ECC and standardize the methods for such analyses along with appropriate visualization methods.
