MSc in Biotechnology from Amrita School of Biotechnology, Kollam.

I’m currently pursuing my PhD in the Department of Developmental Biology and Genetics at IISc. I have completed my MSc in biotechnology from Amrita School of Biotechnology, Kollam. My research work focuses on small RNA pathways in parasites. I’m excited to unravel the molecular intricacies of atypical RNAi mechanisms in the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, focusing on the roles of Dicer, Argonaute, and RDRP in these processes. Besides research, I enjoy dancing, painting, traveling, and playing badminton.
