I graduated with an MD degree from Bogomolets National Medical University (NMU Kyiv), Ukraine in 2022. I was a project researcher in Dr. A. S. Sreedhar’s lab at CSIR-CCMB for a year, looking into the role of Hsp90 in intra-tumor heterogeneity. Following this, I gained brief clinical experience in my hometown of Erode, Tamil Nadu. I recently joined as a PhD student in a collaborative project between Dr. Sudarshan Gadadhar’s lab and Dr. Dhandapany S. Perundurai’s lab at BRIC-inStem, as part of the i3c BRIC-RCB PhD programme (2025-2026). In Dr. Sudarshan’s lab, I am interested in understanding the role of microtubule glycylation in cardiac disorders.

Beyond my desire to advance science, I am captivated by various art forms, philosophical discussions, wayfaring, learning about different cultures, and polity.
