Biography

Dr. Mamoona Asghar is working as a Lecturer (Above the Bar) in the School of Computer Science, University of Galway since January 05, 2022. She has more than 17 years of lecturing and R&D experience in Ireland, UK, and Pakistan since 2006. She received her Ph.D. degree from the School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering, University of Essex, Colchester, U.K., in 2013. Her Ph.D. was funded by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan.
During her academic appointment at the public-sector university of Pakistan (IUB), she received a Competitive Research Grant (No.:6282/Punjab/NRPU/R&D/HEC/2016) awarded by the Higher HEC, Pakistan under the National Research Program for Universities (2016).  In 2017, 
she received a prestigious Marie Sklodowska Curie (MSC) Career-FIT International Fellowship for 03 years at the Athlone Institute of Technology (AIT), Athlone, Ireland for the project titled "Distributed analytics for a large urban CCTV system". This award was funded by the European Union's Horizon2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 713654This MSC fellowship was a collaborative project with an industry partner Evercam Ltd, Dublin. She is again awarded an MSCA Postdoc fellowship grant (Project: SISSViD) in 2023 (2 years) for mentoring a postdoc at the School of Computer Science, Galway.
She has successfully supervised 04 PhD students to completion in Pakistan. She is a recipient of 02 President Doctoral Scholarship (PDS) grants to supervise PhD students (2019 and 2020) at AIT, Ireland. She is currently supervising 04 PhD students under COSE-2022, Hardiman-2023, and Chinese Postdoctoral scholarship 2023 at School of Computer Science, University of Galway. 
She has published several indexed journal articles along with numerous international conference papers. She is actively involved in reviewing research articles for renowned journals/conferences and has participated as a session chair. She is also an IEEE Senior Member.
