Graduate Student (2025-)

Department of Biosciences and Bioengineering (BSBE)

Education: MSc. in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry,  Guru Nanak Dev University

Research interest: Cancer Metabolism, Tumor Angiogenesis

About me: I have recently joined the IVM Lab in the Department of BSBE at the IIT Dharwad as a Ph.D. scholar. I hold a Master’s degree from Guru Nanak Dev University, where my dissertation focused on understanding how metabolic and sleep stress can alter blood–testis barrier permeability.

My current research interests lie in cell and cancer metabolism, with a particular focus on elucidating the molecular and biochemical pathways that regulate vascular remodeling during breast cancer metastasis progression. Outside the lab, I am deeply passionate about literature and creative expression—you will often find me immersed in a good book or crafting poetry that reflects my thoughts and experiences.

Education: MSc. in Biochemistry,  University of Lucknow

Research interest: FIRE-induced Vascular Remodeling in Atherosclerosis

About her:  I am currently a Ph.D. Scholar in the Department of Biosciences and Bioengineering (BSBE) at IIT Dharwad. I hold a Master’s degree in Biochemistry from the University of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, where I completed my dissertation at CSIR–Central Drug Research Institute (CSIR-CDRI), Lucknow. My dissertation research focused on the Generation of Musashi-2 Deletion Mutants and Their In-vitro Characterization.

My current research interests center on vascular biology, with a particular focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying vascular remodeling in atherosclerosis. 

Beyond the lab, I am passionate about creative pursuits such as photography, journaling, and mandala art, which help me maintain a balanced, focused, and mindful approach to research.
