Howdy, I’m Saquib.
I’m Nazmus Saadat As-Saquib, a PhD student in Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University. My research connects brain-inspired learning, neuromorphic computing, and analog in-memory computing to build more efficient learning systems.

01 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME
My work lives at the intersection of learning algorithms and physical computing.
My experience with semiconductor materials and device fabrication led me toward hardware–software co-design. At Texas A&M, I study how insights from the brain can inform more efficient ways for machines to learn.
Beyond the lab, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family and friends, and contributing to my community. Those experiences keep me curious—and remind me why the work matters.
