Shakhawat Hossain is an American Heart Association Predoctoral Fellow and PhD candidate in Biomedical Engineering at Penn State, specializing in how sleep-driven hemodynamics and neuromodulation regulate glymphatic clearance and influence neurodegenerative disease risk. With seven years of multidisciplinary research experience and top grades across EE and biomedical programs, he combines optics, biosensing, and cerebral blood flow measurements to probe brain waste clearance across arousal states. A recipient of NIH T32 neural engineering training and multiple university fellowships, he bridges engineering rigor with translational neuroscience. Beyond the lab, he codes full-stack projects—applying software skills to instrument control and data analysis—making him adept at building end-to-end experimental platforms that translate complex physiology into actionable insights.
