Biography

Dr Mohammad Al-Quraan is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Autonomous Systems and Connectivity at the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow, U.K. He received the B.Sc. (Hons.) degree in Telecommunications Engineering and the M.Sc. (Hons.) degree in Wireless Telecommunications Engineering from Yarmouk University, Jordan, in 2011 and 2019, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Glasgow, U.K., in 2024. He has co-authored numerous research papers in leading IEEE journals and conferences. His research interests include machine learning, federated learning, cyber-physical systems, digital twins, and beyond-5G/6G wireless networks, with applications in intelligent transportation and smart city systems.

Dr Al-Quraan is an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA). He is currently working on TransiT, a project focused on federated digital twinning for the decarbonisation of UK transport, and has previously contributed to the 5G REMOTE, PECN, and SODOR projects at the University of Glasgow. In 2023, he was endorsed under the UK Global Talent programme by the Royal Academy of Engineering and received the Exemplary Reviewer Award from IEEE Communications Letters.
