Enzyme Therapeutics, Proteomics and Biophysical Characterization

Biography

I focus primarily on understanding promiscuous nature of serine protease and therapeutic translational opportunity precisely vascular thrombolytic disorders as a thrombolytic agent. My research interest lies in exploring protein biochemistry and biophysical studies of therapeutic enzymes. Currently, I am working to explore drug delivery strategies across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) using native transport mechanisms. I am a 2005 Pharma graduate from Uttar Pradesh Technical University, completed M.Tech Biotechnology from the West Bengal University of Technology, Kolkata and Ph.D. from Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur Andhra Pradesh. I have received DBT fellowship from M.Tech. Biotechnology program (2006-2008) and DST-National Post-Doctoral Fellowship (2016-2018).
