Postdoc: Institut Pasteur, Paris
PhD: Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore

During my PhD, I studied the role of chaperone Hsp90 in the life cycle and virulence of protozoan parasites. For my post-doc research, I transitioned to explore epigenetic gene regulation and inheritance mediated by small RNAs in the free-living nematode, C. elegans, in the lab of Dr Germano Cecere at Institut Pasteur, Paris. I am currently a faculty at the Indian Institute of Science and my main interest is to understand the evolution of small RNA pathways in protozoan parasites and their role in host-parasite interaction. In my free time, I love to read, travel and very recently I picked up acrylic pour painting as a hobby.
