My Biography

I have extensive expertise in Cancer Biology, More Epigenetics, Biotechnology, Microbiome. I hold a Master of Science (MS) in Biotechnology from the University of Bangalore, India, and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in life science with a focus on Cancer Biology, specifically Gastric Adenocarcinoma. Currently, I am working in Dr. Ashktorab’s laboratory as a Postdoctoral Researcher in Department of Medicine, Gastroenterology Division, Howard University Hospital Cancer Center, Washington DC, USA. During my doctoral studies, I focused on understanding the molecular profiles of histone H3 isoforms and variants in gastric adenocarcinoma and exploring novel pathways and potential therapeutic targets. At Howard University, I have conducted exome next-generation sequencing (NGS) on African American colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, leading to the identification of novel and deleterious MSH3 missense mutations, providing insights into their significance in AA-CRC pathogenesis.

Hello all, My research area is Fire safety in buildings. I try to sensitize students on this very Read More important topic and always inculcate this as a design consideration in design studios of various semesters while designing buildings along with other considerations of climate, aesthetics, sustainibilty etc.
