Gohel worked as a task leader in federal research projects at applied research center at Florida International University(FIU).[10] Gohel also served as a postdoctoral advisory board member at FIU.[11]

Education

Gohel has received his Ph.D. in computer science from University of Hertfordshire, England in 2015. He has received his bachelor's and master's degree in computer science from Saurashtra University and Sardar Patel University, India.[10]

Research

Gohel has an extensive research experience in artificial intelligence[12] and cyber test automation and monitoring, smart bandages for wound monitoring, bigdata for security intelligence, trustworthy cyberspace for security and privacy of social media, predictive maintenance for nuclear infrastructure, and database and mobile forensics infrastructure.[4][13] He has 70 publications in the journals and proceedings of national and international conferences.[14] In December 2020, his collaborative research on COVID-19 was recognized and listed in global literature by the World Health Organization(WHO).[15]

Grants

In January 2019, Gohel received postdoctoral travel grant from FIU-OPSS to participate and present research in top tier cybersecurity conference.[16] In February 2020, Gohel's graduate student also received internet society travel grant to attend the same top tier conference.[17]

In April 2020, Gohel received Jr. faculty summer research grant [18] and In November 2020, he received multiyear collaborative federal STEM grant to develop students workforce in data science, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and other advanced technical research areas to prepare students career in US defense system.[13] In April 2021, Gohel received internal research grant award.[18] In 2022, UHV has received first time federal contract for research. Gohel is the principal investigator on this project. The project is to conduct research on technologies including artificial intelligence for the U.S. Department of Energy[9]

Community outreach

In March 2021, Gohel has joined University of Houston’s Hewlett Packard Enterprise Data Science Institute as an AI/ML faculty researcher. This is to promote research, education, services, operations and outreach in data science and artificial intelligence across the Houston, Katy and Victoria, Texas areas.[19]

In December 2020, Gohel has formed a UHV student branch of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the world's largest technical professional organization.[8] Gohel is also associated with virtual converges of international tech communities by webinars and noteworthy virtual datascience summer bootcamps for high school students.[5][20]
