Neuroscientist in training by day, elegantly wasted by night. I have a BSc in Computer Science from LUMS , Pakistan and an MPhil in Computational Biology from Cambridge, UK. Currently working towards a PhD in Neuroscience from Imperial College, UK.
I have been disabled since birth with Cerebral Palsy - Spastic Hemiplegia. Born and bred in Karachi, I am aware of the many aspects of being disabled in the third world i.e. social, educational, professional etc.
I am tired of being just a critic, so for now writing is possibly one of the few ways I can try to make a difference back home.

Rethinking Disability in the Third World
Naveed Ejaz Feb 14, 2007 interacts: 22 Views: 2893Much like sexuality, disability is a taboo subject even when considered as part of a serious debate. It is the unnamed pink elephant in the living room that no one is comfortable talking about.
