I studied Mathematics as a subject during my M.Sc (1995-1997) and MPhil(1997-1998) at Sambalpur Univeristy. During MPhil my interest developed towards an interesting subject called Fractals; especially solving interesting problems such as image compression using Fractal Theory. This interest leads me to other interesting topics such as wavelets and image processing. I decided to pursue a PhD(2000-2006) in the field of image processing, which I completed successfully  from Indian Statistical Institute, one of the premier institute in India. On completion of PhD I got an opportunity to work in real life problems at Philips Research Asia-Bangalore (2006-till date). Currently, I have been working on various problems in health care, especially in the domain of oncology. My role and responsibility in the organization have been to come up with novel working solutions to problems using my expertise from image/signal processing and pattern recognition. For the last couple of years, I have been involved in microscopic image analysis for diagnosis disease such as malaria and cervical cancer. I have close to ten publications in reputed conferences/journals and two patent filings from my research works.
