Mahmud Husain has a bachelors degree in Biology (major in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology) from Quaid-e-Azam university in Pakistan, a masters degree in Biotechnology from Johns Hopkins university in USA and a post-graduate diploma in Biomedical Sciences from University of Westminster in UK. His work life is equally divided with half the time employed in blue collar jobs and other half in white collar vocations (genomics, microbiology and mainly medical diagnostics).
