Biography

I am working as an SACT in the Department of Zoology, Sarojini Naidu College for Women since July 2019. I have completed my Ph.D. from ICMR-National Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases in 2021. I qualified CSIR-UGC NET JRF in 2012 with rank 69. I completed my M.Sc. from Bangabasi College and my B.Sc. was from Sarojini Naidu College for Women.

Research

Host pathogen interaction.
Areas of specialization: ELISA, SDS-PAGE and Western blot, Gel electrophoresis, PCR as well as surgical models like Mice and Rabbit ileal loop model, RITARD model etc.
