I am currently a Project Scientist and Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur. My research lies at the intersection of algebraic coding theory, DNA data storage, molecular communications, and distributed storage systems.
My work focuses on the design and analysis of codes under biological and combinatorial constraints, motivated by emerging applications in DNA-based data storage and molecular communication channels. I have published in leading IEEE journals and flagship conferences, including IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Information Theory, IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications, IEEE Communications Letters, ISIT, ICC, and Allerton.
