Dr. Paniz Abedin joined 91Â鶹ӳ»as an assistant professor of
computer science in spring 2022. Before joining 91Â鶹ӳ» Poly, she was a graduate teaching
and research assistant at the University of Central 91Â鶹ӳ». She completed her Ph.D.
in computer science under the supervision of Dr. Sharma Thankachan at UCF in 2021.
Abedin’s research areas are algorithms on strings and compressed data structures with
applications to computational biology.
