Dr.

Ahmad Yar Sukhera

Researcher Assistant | Gold Medalist
Born and raised in a small village in Punjab, Pakistan. Took admis-
sion in MBBS at a private medical college, so that I can proudly
write the prefix 'Doctor' with my name. Soon after the publishing of
my first book "Cardiac Spirituality" about "Heart is not just a
pumping organ", which is launched by Pakistan's renewed scientist
Info Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, I realized that I want to contribute in the
field of medicine more as a researcher and writer instead of
Date of Birth clinician. This quest for research brings me to the Hamdard
University as a student of Eastern Medicine, where despite that I
12-June-1991

Nationality projects and poster competitions including Emerging Scientist
Pakistani Season II and 3 times DICE USA, developed Pakistan's largest
database of cardiopulmonary sounds and invented "Avicenna
Religion
MUST KIT", Published a book "Urology in Canon" to give tribute to
Islam Avicenna, I feel more fortunate to be known as the founder of
"Evidence-Based Tibb" which is an initiative to bring extraordinary
Contact evidence to ascertain the extraordinary claims made by the
traditional healers practicing Eastern Medicine.

Cardiopulmonary Auscultatory Database
According to CNN “more than 80% of doctors cannot recognize the common heart problems by

pulmonary sounds with their literature, phonograms, spectrograms, and waveforms.

Project Truth or Myth (About COVID-19)
With this pandemic, another problem that scientists were concerned about is the “Infodemic”.

with this data lots of misinformation also circulated. In this project, I debunked the top 10 myths
about Covid-19 which were circulated in the local community of Pakistan.
