Welcome to My Digital Space

Hi! I am Ashfaque Khowaja, a passionate PhD scholar in Computer Science at UNSW Sydney, where I joined on February 9, 2026. Previously, I was a PhD scholar in the School of Design at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), where I worked under the supervision of Prof. Seungwoo Je at the Immersive Design Group.

My current research focuses on Alzheimer's disease and dementia, integrating the exposome with multimodal data to better understand the factors that shape brain health. This builds on my background in medical imaging and deep learning.
