I am a senior research associate at the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Parasitology, Institute of Infection, Immunology and Inflammation, university of Glasgow, UK, where I investigate cellular targets of parasitic proteins. My native place is in the state Bihar, India. My doctoral study was on cellular and developmental biology of Dictyostelium discoideum from the Indian institute of Technology- Madras, Chennai. During my first postdoctoral study at the CRUK Beatson Institute, Glasgow, I studied importance of GTPase Rac1 and phosphorylation in the modulation of the Scar/WAVE complex during migration of cancer cells and Dictyostelium. My previous research experience led me to build expertise in cell, molecular biology and biochemistry, and I expect an established scientific career soon.
