About Me

My academic training and research experience primarily in the field of life sciences enables me to be an effective faculty in the Department of Zoology. My experiences have helped me to fine-tune my organizing ability which is an essential element for this position. I love to stay busy, mentally alert and physically fit to act smartly, which are prerequisites for this position. My research experience at Republic of South Korea was essentially related to the post-translational regulation of genes where we studied several critical immune genes commonly present across eukaryotes. It was exciting as this field is trending now in the field of science. Our studies were applicable to the plant and animal models as well. Part of our study was published in the prestigious Journal “Plant Cell” (American Society of Plant Biologists). As a result of our research outcome, we are able to decipher the molecular mechanism/s involved in post-translational control on fate of messenger RNA’s. We can extend our research outcomes to reveal several unknown mechanisms in the field of immunity. I am equally interested in the field of aquaculture including pisciculture and animal biodiversity as evident from my publications. I am excited to share and continue to explore this methodology and collaborate with department faculties to expand its potential. My past experiences as Post Graduate Teacher in Biology at Demonstration Multipurpose School, Bhubaneswar (NCERT), Assistant Professor in Zoology at Regional Institute of Education, Bhubaneswar (NCERT) and research activities have built my confidence and an interest in teaching and I look forward to the opportunity to not only teach existing courses, but also work to develop new ones.
