MrMuhammad Abdullah Khokhar

Mr. Muhammad Abdullah Khokhar is a PhD (Mathematics) candidate at the University of Tasmania, School of Natural Sciences, Discipline of Mathematics. He is working on a project titled "Models for hospital patient flow: Decision-making in a challenging environment." He uses mathematical and probabilistic models to give practical solutions to patient flow problems in hospitals. His research interests are matrix-analytic methods (MAMs), stochastic modelling, and application of applied probability in operations research, health care systems, and evolutionary biology.

Biography

Mr. Muhammad Abdullah received his M.Phil. degree in mathematics in 2021 from the University of the Punjab (PU). During his MPhil, he worked as a part-time teaching assistant at the department of mathematics, University of the Punjab. He worked as a lecturer in mathematics in 2022 at the University of the Punjab. He is passionate about using AI and machine learning to manage patient flow in hospitals. He is a member of the "Designs for a Better Patient Journey" group (Group link: https://www.utas.edu.au/health/research/groups/tasmanian-school-of-medicine/public-health-health-systems/designs-for-a-better-patient-journey). This is a multidisciplinary collaborative group focused on modelling and optimising healthcare systems, in collaboration with the Tasmanian Department of Health. He is also a member of Australian Mathematical Society (AustMS), and Association of Australian Mathematics Students (AAMS).
