Her research interests focuses on a wide range of pathological diseases identification including
Neoplastic and non-neoplastic pulmonary lesions.
Developing improved staining and biopsy techniques for gastrointestinal disorders, especially Hirschsprung’s disease.
Investigating immunohistochemical markers such as VEGF, ER, PR, and HER2/neu in breast and colorectal cancers.
Studying molecular subtypes of tumors to identify prognostic and predictive biomarkers.
Expanding research on rare tumors (e.g., paragangliomas, renal sarcomas) to contribute to global case registries.
Her thesis entitled as “Histopathological comparison between punch and full thickness rectal biopsy with toluidine blue staining in diagnosis of Hirschsprung’s disease”
She has published scholarly articles in peer-reviewed journals.
Dr. Akter's research interests are centered on advancing diagnostic pathology and its clinical applications. Key areas of focus include:
· Cytopathological techniques for early detection and diagnosis.
· The pathology of common infectious diseases prevalent in the region.
· Investigating the pathogenesis and diagnostic markers of common cancers, such as cervical and breast carcinoma.
· Digital pathology and the integration of artificial intelligence in diagnostic workflows.
· Innovations in medical education and competency-based training methodologies for pathology.
Her work aims to bridge laboratory findings with clinical outcomes to improve diagnostic precision, patient management strategies, and pathology education.
