Consultancies

Research Consultancy Services — Dr. Atish BaruaWith over a decade of hands-on experience in molecular biology, immunology, and microbiology — spanning doctoral training and postdoctoral research at Tufts University School of Medicine — I offer specialized academic and scientific consultancy services tailored to researchers, students, and institutions across life sciences.Manuscript Writing & EditingI provide end-to-end support for scientific manuscript preparation, from structuring the narrative and interpreting data to crafting publication-ready drafts for peer-reviewed journals. My experience covers original research articles, review articles, and preprints across fields including host-pathogen biology, innate immunology, natural product pharmacology, and post-transcriptional gene regulation. I ensure clarity, logical flow, and alignment with target journal scope and formatting standards.Experimental Design & Research PlanningDrawing on expertise in macrophage biology, infection models, flow cytometry, RT-qPCR, and molecular cloning, I assist in designing rigorous, reproducible experiments. Services include hypothesis framing, control selection, statistical planning, and interpretation of complex datasets — ensuring your research meets the standards expected by high-impact journals and funding bodies.Thesis WritingI offer structured guidance for PhD and master's thesis writing, including chapter organization, literature review development, results narration, and discussion framing. I help students translate raw data and bench work into a compelling, examiner-ready academic document.Poster Design & Scientific VisualizationI design clear, visually engaging conference posters and scientific figures that communicate complex findings effectively. Expertise with GraphPad Prism, flow cytometry data visualization, and schematic model diagrams ensures your work stands out at national and international forums.All services are offered with strict confidentiality, discipline-specific scientific accuracy, and a commitment to academic integrity. Researchers at any career stage — from MSc students to independent investigators — are welcome to reach out for personalized support.

In this service, I will guide you through the steps for molecular dynamics simulations with gromacs or htmd, all the way starting from the raw protein structure files, forcefield selection and equilibration, to production runs and various analyses (RMSD, RMSF, and Rg)Additionally, simulations with ligands are also my expertise, which further analysis with ligand interactions and mmPBSA/GBSA calculations can be accomodated.I am also open to help, for the setting up of Ubuntu/compilation of gromacs/htmd for you to reproduce/run the simulations yourself!

In this service, I will walk you through the steps and standards of results reporting for the majority types of data/results. This service is highly customizable for your needs, but the general recommended flow is:1. Data importing and preparation2. Descriptive reporting (ie. simple statistics with T tests and plotting) and Data QC;3. Trend finding or hypothesis testing (if you have a specific variable/research question to answer);4. Plotting and synthesis of findings.I have advance proficiency in R and python, and would highly encourage their usage. However, other programs (excel, SPSS etc.) is also welcome

Research Design Framework: Assisting with descriptive, causal, or exploratory research structures.Secondary Data Sourcing & Cleaning: Helping students pull corporate financial data, organize balance sheet variables, and set up panels for analysis.Hypothesis Testing Guidance: Explaining how to interpret statistical results (like regression or correlation outputs) so they can write their analysis chapters confidently.

Thematic & Chronological Mapping: Organizing existing research logically.Research Gap Matrix: Creating clear, data-backed evidence showing exactly where the student's study fills a missing piece in current literature.Reference Management: Cleaning up bibliography formats using standard academic styles (APA, Harvard, or Vancouver).

Topic Selection & Feasibility Analysis: Helping students pick a viable, defense-ready research gap in Commerce, Finance, or Economics.Drafting the Research Proposal: Structuring the problem statement, objectives, hypotheses, and operational definitions to meet strict institutional standards.

Hi there! Are you looking to perform metagenomic sequencing for your project? Need practical advice on where to start, which sequencing platform to use, or how to analyze your data once its generated? For any and all support in microbiomics feel free to contact me.

Transform raw or processed gene expression data into biologically meaningful insights. I perform complete differential gene expression analysis using established bioinformatics pipelines, followed by functional interpretation and publication-ready visualizations.

As an independent researcher, i will support the chapter publication in book series under my editorialship.

To assist in research collaborations with different Indian and Foreign Universities and Research Institutes.

I provide expert analysis and interpretation of XRD, UV-Vis, FTIR, Raman, electrical, and magnetic characterization data for researchers, students, and professionals in Physics, Materials Science, and Engineering. My services include data processing, peak identification, curve fitting, result interpretation, correlation with material properties, and preparation of publication-quality graphs and discussions. I ensure accurate, reliable, and scientifically meaningful analysis to support your research, thesis, or journal publication.
