Mirza's current research focuses on two main areas: hematopathology[39] and pathology medical education. He has been recognized for his work on the pathology pipeline[40], promotion of #TwitterHomework[41][42] , interprofessional laboratory education[43], and the importance of the laboratory in access to healthcare[44] .

Mirza is one of the founders of PathElective, a free, modular online pathology elective that in just 1 year of existence has over 37,000 users from across the globe[45]. The website allows pathology education in an easy to use format.
