Excited to share that I’m now fully focused on @hexafinnovation as Founder & CEO.

Through HexaF, we’re advancing physics-informed AI, space weather intelligence, satellite resilience, and mission-support solutions for space and Earth systems.

Grateful for the journey ahead

[Muhammad Fraz Bashir @mfrazbashir]

Selected into the NSF Great Lakes I-Corps Hub.

HexaF is advancing physics-informed AI for mission resilience — because space weather is an operational risk, not just a scientific phenomenon.

Discovery → Validation → Execution.

HUGE NEWS: Dr. Bilal Gondal, MD, MRCSI joins @hexafinnovation as Medical Advisor!
The mission to solve healthcare in deep space just gained a massive clinical engine. We’re redefining human performance from Earth to Deep Space!

[Muhammad Fraz Bashir @mfrazbashir]

Proud moment for @HexaFInnovations.
We’ve been accepted into the @UIResearchPark , an ecosystem built for turning research into real systems.

Excited to keep building across space weather, human performance, resilient sensing, and mission-ready AI.

2025 was the foundation. 2026 is where we move the needle. 📈

Launching @hexafinnovation last month was just the start. I’m moving all our major project reveals and technical updates over to the company page.
First big reveal drops this Monday, Jan 6th. Follow for the updates!

2025: Foundation. 2026: Impact. 📈

Happy New Year from HexaF! After a launch year of AGU contributions and successful funding, we’re shifting gears.

January is a month of milestones. major reveals are coming, starting Jan 6th. Stay tuned: https://t.co/42COHm793g 🚀

The Sun is drumming on Earth, and we’re finally learning the beat. 🥁🛰️

Honored to give an Invited Talk today at #AGU25! Based on 4 of my research papers, I’m showing how a "Global Clock" in the magnetosphere synchronizes plasma waves to trigger massive radiation loss.

Is Space Weather putting the Ozone Layer on its lunch menu? 🛰️🍴
Today at #AGU25, I shared how relativistic microbursts take a 20% "snack" out of our mesospheric ozone.
At @HexaF_Innovations, we’re turning this deep physics into AI-driven resilience. In NOLA, DM to connect. 🤝
