I am a postgraduate researcher specializing in Plant Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, with a strong academic foundation in Agricultural Science. Currently pursuing my PhD at Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, my earlier research focuses on identifying gene editing targets for modifying the glycemic index (GI) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. My academic journey began with a B.Sc. in Agricultural Science from I.K. Gujral Punjab Technical University, where I undertook projects on hydroponics and achieved consistent academic excellence as a university and departmental topper. I possess hands-on expertise in a wide range of laboratory techniques, including PCR, gel electrophoresis, centrifugation, spray drying, and spectrophotometry, along with bioinformatics tools such as NCBI, SwissProt, and EMBL. My skills extend to biochemical estimations of amylose, total starch, and GI in rice, as well as protein isolation from cereals and legumes. In addition to academic achievements such as qualifying GATE-XL, GATE-BT, UGC NET and DBT-JRF. Passionate about bridging research and practical applications, I am equally enthusiastic about interdisciplinary approaches, combining molecular biology, genomics and sustainable agricultural practices to address current and future challenges in global food security.
