I'm a bioinformatics researcher studying resistance mutations and correlations in viral proteins. Sequence
evolution plays a central role in my research. Being born and raised in
Pakistan exposed me to Islam and religious hypocrisy at an early age. As a result, I am critical of several aspects of
religion. I enjoy questioning religion, blind faith, set beliefs and unspoken norms and am interested in highlighting the hypocrisy of religion in society. I am especially sensitive to the (mis)treatment of
women. Through this blog, I share my perspective. You can also find
me on twitter.

Oh. And Oscar is my dog. He loves life.
