My Biography

Dr. Pragya is an experienced More neurobiologist/electrophysiologist with more than fifteen years of experience in the field of neuroscience. She has established a track record in neurobiology, nicotine addiction, electrophysiology, and cell culture techniques. She graduated from the University of Victoria, Canada, and worked as a post-doctorate research fellow at the Hospital of Sick Children, Toronto, and McGill University, Canada. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, Birla Institute of Technology & Science Pilani (BITS-Pilani), Hyderabad Campus, India. She serves as an editorial board member of Nature Scientific Reports journal and an editor for Research & Reviews: A Journal of Life Sciences (STM journal). Her recent insights into the atypical function of immune protein receptors were recognized by the United Nations and included under the sustainable development goal for better health and well-being for all (UN-SDG). She has received several awards and grants from the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO).
Our laboratory focuses on the neurological benefits of Vitamin D3-Vitamin D receptors (VD-VDR) mediated signaling in the mammalian brain, primarily focusing on cholinergic systems. Our lab explores how the cross-talk among the myriad downstream signal molecules activated affects cholinergic receptor expression and function in difficult neuropathological conditions like those observed in Huntington’s disease and schizophrenia.

Fatima Tabassum Mouri

I completed B. Arch from Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology and has been teaching Read More Architecture at undergraduate level at Bangladesh University since 2017. I have been involved in several research projects. My research interest based primarily on human wellbeing in indoors and outdoors; and innovative solutions for human settlement and urban environment issues. My research work consists of analyzing the effect of indoor greens on occupants’ wellbeing, proposing temporary design solution for floating population, and proposing vertical greening on flyover pillars to mitigate UHI effect and air pollution. I was also a member of peer review committee in UIA 2023 conference.

DR RAGHAVENDAR RAJU L

Recently, I’ve been working on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, focusing on security and quality of service Read More (QoS). Through the development and implementation of methods such as the Key Exchange Approach, Node Trust Prediction Approach, and Node Activity-based Trust and Reputation Estimation approaches, we have achieved secure routing and improved QoS in MANET. This work holds significant importance.

I’d like to share how my recent work in mathematical modeling and non-linear dynamical systems is Read More making a meaningful difference, particularly within our research area.
Predictive Power: My research in mathematical modeling equips us with more accurate predictive tools. By better understanding and modeling complex systems, we can anticipate and respond to changes more effectively. This can be especially valuable in [mention a specific application, e.g., ‘climate modeling,’ ‘financial forecasting,’ or ‘epidemiology’].
Problem Solving: In the realm of non-linear dynamical systems, my work focuses on uncovering new solutions to intricate problems. This helps us address challenges that were previously considered too complex or insurmountable. These insights can be applied across various fields, from engineering to biology.
Optimization: Non-linear dynamical systems often involve optimization challenges. My research advances optimization techniques, leading to improved decision-making processes and resource allocation. This means we can achieve better outcomes with fewer resources.
Interdisciplinary Applications: Mathematical modeling and non-linear dynamical systems have broad interdisciplinary applications. My work can be a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in fields such as [mention relevant fields, e.g., ‘biomedicine,’ ‘environmental science,’ or ‘economics’].
By sharing my recent work, I hope to spark discussions and collaborations that can further amplify the impact of these findings. Let’s explore how we can leverage these insights to address pressing challenges and advance our research area together.
