About Myself:

Soon after my B.E., I joined Prof. P. Balaram's lab at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) as a JRF, exploring the computational aspects of protein sequence, structure & function. I am currently registered for PhD at the Trans-Disciplinary University (TDU-FRLHT, Bangalore) as a joint student of Prof. R. Sowdhamini (NCBS) and Dr. Radhika Venkatesan (NCBS).  My non-scientific interests include- going places, as I love to explore different cultures, cuisines, etc. I also enjoy painting and exploring creative arts in my free time.
