Assistant professor

Qualification : PhD (Delhi University), PDF (ICGEB, New Delhi)

Specialization : Protein Hormone and Nucleocytoplasmic Transport
EXPERIENCE : 13 years 11 months
Postdoctoral research experience : 4 years 4 months
Teaching experience : 9 Year 7 Months

My research work is assessing biologically important isoforms of protein hormones released from pituitary glands and found in biological fluids. A second area of my interest is cellular physiology of Malaria Parasite with main focus on components of nucleocytoplasmic transport their role in Malaria Parasite survival.
