I am currently working as Professor and Chairperson Systems Biology and Bioinformatics at Panjab University,Chandigarh, I started my research career by successfully completing Masters and Doctoral degree at PGIMER, Chandigarh. In this duration, I equipped myself with state of art technologies in the protein chemistry. My overseas research assignment in USA in Dr. Chandran's lab further sharpened my skills enabling me to understand the mechanism of herpes virus infection. Later, I worked with Professor Nancy Berman at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas, USA, to decipher the contribution of ovarian steroids to menstrual migraine. My pioneering work on the presence of Ghrelin in neurons and other neuropeptides with signaling crosstalk of ovarian steroids has found great acceptance in the field of Headache research studies. In addition, I have done a deeper analysis to understand the Reno-Neural axis in Acute Kidney Injury. Besides the active role in deciphering pain pathways in physiological and pathological conditions, My research focus is on signature biomarkers discovery in various disease conditions using various bioinformatics pipelines and also validating these biomarkers computationally as well as lab conditions.
