The enigma of gene regulation has always fascinated me. How genes & proteins officiate? And how their expression regulates the cell and life? These starting curiosities led me to the magical world of biology. The perplex relationship between cells and other biological structure has driven me to expand my knowledge to discover mysteries of the inner working of life. With interest in biological science, I joined Bachelor’s degree in Science with concentration in Microbiology in Tribhuvan University, Nepal and completed the degree in 2008. As there were limited opportunities for further education in Nepal, I decided to pursue my further studies in United States of America. I was accepted into college of Natural Resources and Life Sciences at New Mexico Highlands University (NMHU) for graduate studies. It was a rewarding experience when I passed the Master’s degree with the 3.9 GPA in the year 2011. I am currently pursuing my PhD at the University of Queensland, Australia, undertaking the research project on improving the liver transplantation outcomes and possible therapeutic approaches.
