I am a Bioinformatics scientist at Developmental Therapeutics Branch, National Cancer Institute, NIH, USA. I am continuously working in the area of Bioinformatics (Genomics) since last six years. I did my Bachelors in Biotechnology (Hons.) (2010-2013) from Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India. I obtained Post Graduation degree in Biotechnology (2013-2015) from Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India.
In August 2015, I moved to Chandigarh and joined the one of prestigious institutes in India, CSIR - Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTECH) for my doctoral research.
At IMTECH, I have joined Dr. G.P.S. Raghava group and finished my PhD in Bioinformatics in January 2021. After my PhD, I have joined as bioinformatic consultant in DeepKnomics, Bangalore, India for about two months. After that I joined National Institutes of Health, USA under Dr. Anish Thomas (M.B.B.S., M.D.) at Developmental Therapeutics Branch of National Cancer Institutes, Bethesda, MD (DTB, NCI, NIH). Currently, I am serving as a Bioinformatics Scientist at DTB, NCI, NIH since May 20 , 2021.
