I finished my B.Sc. (Hons) in Chemistry from the M. S. University of Baroda, India and then pursued the master’s degree at the Biochemistry department of the same university. I then moved to the Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology to pursue a Ph.D. in the structure biology. Before moving to the University of Bergen as a postdoctoral fellow, I worked at the Institute of Life Sciences for a year. With Prof. Ruth Brenk, currently, I am exploring the therapeutic potential of structured RNA molecules as antibacterial targets. Using a combination of structure biology, high throughput screening techniques and bioinformatics approach, my research focuses on developing lead like drug molecules against various pathogenic conditions by targeting validated targets.
