About me
Fresh PhD graduate in Bioengineering from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, with research experience in immunoengineering and biomaterials. Skilled in experimental design, microscopy, flow cytometry, molecular biology, data analysis, and scientific communication. Passionate about mentoring students and simplifying concepts in biology, biotechnology, immunology, and research methodology through practical, research-driven academic guidance for students from diverse academic backgrounds.
Interests: My primary research interest lies at the interface of biomaterials, immunoengineering, and translational immunology, with a focus on understanding how synthetic particles influence innate immune cell behavior, particularly macrophage function. During my PhD at Indian Institute of Science, I investigated how prior phagocytic events alter macrophage efferocytic capacity and cellular behavior, an area with important implications for tissue homeostasis, inflammation, and tumor immune surveillance. My work has involved building mechanistic understanding through a combination of cell biology, biophysics, and immunology approaches. I have hands-on experience with multicolour flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, AFM, FRAP-based membrane studies, Seahorse metabolic assays, qRT-PCR, functional migration assays, and murine tumor models. Working across these techniques has helped me develop a strong foundation in experimental design, troubleshooting, quantitative analysis, and interpretation of complex biological data.
