About ABSTRACT

I joined Neutrino ACC Science Club (NASC) out of my curiosity about science, research, and innovation and my desire to explore ideas beyond the classroom. My journey began as a Club Representative and gradually grew as I served as Organizing Secretary and later as Central Club Prefect from November 2024 to September 2025.

During my time at NASC, I gained valuable experience in club management, event coordination, teamwork, and student engagement. Working alongside passionate science enthusiasts taught me responsibility, effective communication, collaboration, and leadership. It also strengthened my belief that science clubs should go beyond extracurricular activities and create opportunities for students to explore ideas, develop practical skills, and discover their potential.

Beyond NASC, I have continued applying these lessons through youth-led initiatives. I founded the United Youth Forum of Science and Research (UYFSR), dedicated to promoting research and innovation among young people, and co-founded LabLink, a startup working to make research resources and opportunities more accessible to aspiring researchers. I have also been involved in environmental advocacy, creative initiatives, and youth development.

Currently, I am pursuing a BSc in Health Technology (Laboratory Medicine) at Bangladesh Shishu Hospital & Institute under the University of Dhaka. My academic interests include laboratory science, biomedical research, and scientific innovation. I aspire to build a career in research while creating opportunities for the next generation of young researchers.

For me, NASC has been an important part of my growth. It taught me that leadership is not just about holding a position but also about supporting others, working as a team, and creating something meaningful together. The curiosity, discipline, and sense of responsibility I developed at NASC continue to shape my journey today.
