People

A small permanent team and a rotating cohort of student researchers. Most names on this page arrived as undergraduates with no research experience.

Founder

Who started the centre

Md. Jubayer Hossain

Md. Jubayer Hossain

Founder & Executive Director

He founded CHIRAL Bangladesh in 2020 to close a specific gap: undergraduates here reach graduation without ever having designed a study, cleaned a dataset, or read a reviewer's report on their own work.

The centre exists to put them on real projects with real supervision and keep them there until something is published — free to join, volunteer-run, with students first-authoring their own work and the teaching material kept open so the capacity stays in the region.
