About Me
I’m M M Imran (Pollob), a PhD candidate specializing in Blockchain Security.
Before my PhD, I worked for over five years as a Software Engineer, building production systems in PHP, JavaScript, Python and modern web frameworks.
I’m most excited about the intersection of secure Blockchain design, AI/ML, and practical Software Engineering—turning research ideas into tools that people can actually use.
