  • Research Associate at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay (Jan 2011- March 2012).
  • Understanding Antibiotic Resistance: The lab is elucidating how stress induce the intercellular quorum sensing mechanism and intracellular signaling pathways coordinate for biofilm formation.
  • Novel Compounds Discovery for Biofilm Control: Here we investigate a wide range of novel compounds which has potential not only to prevent biofilm formation but also efficiently eradicate preformed biofilms. We will also elucidate their mode of action using various biochemical, molecular biology and proteomics techniques.
  • Systems Biology and Targeted drug therapy: In this area we employ the genomics, transcriptomics and bioinformatics analysis to narrow down the complexity of these biofilm associated problems in order to identify crucial biofilm markers so as to target and eliminate bacterial infections. Also, we try to use nanotechnology for targeted-drug therapy.
  • Plant Metabolism, Stress Physiology, Molecular Biology and Metabolic Engineering.
