My broad research interests lie in various domains of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I aim to leverage advanced AI/ML and HCI techniques to address complex challenges across diverse fields. My research includes :

• Human‑Centered AI for Digital Health via Wearables: How AI can turn raw streams from smartwatches, fitness bands, and other body‑worn sensors into actionable, patient‑friendly insights. The goal is to provide real‑time feedback loops delivered on the devices people already wear, that support personalized interventions and long‑term behavior change.

•  Large‑Language‑Model Techniques for Drug Discovery: Applying LLMs to molecular data, treating SMILES strings, protein sequences, and assay reports as “chemistry language.” Ongoing projects explore few‑shot property optimization, integration with docking pipelines, and conversational agents that accelerate hypothesis generation in the wet lab.
