Education

  • M.Sc. Forensic Science. Amity University, Noida (2016-2018)
  • B.Sc. Medical microbiology. University College of Medical Education, Mahatma Gandhi University,

Internships and Research Experiences

  • Project work done For the National children science congress conducted in Hyderabad for a duration of 6 months on the topic “THE BIODIVERSITY OF HIBISCUS ROSA-SINENSIS” got national level attention.
  • Some of the common lab work, from both Undergraduate/Graduate level is the techniques of Chromatography (Paper Chromatography and a Thin Layer Chromatography), Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR/ Thermal Cycler), SDS-PAGE, which was used to analyze the DNA isolated from an animal tissue, plant tissue (using CTAB Buffer) and also from Bacteria (Escherichia coli).
  • 6 months Internship at ST. JOHNS MEDICAL COLLEGE, BANGALORE (August 2015- February 2016). Learned various techniques like microbial plate cultures of bacteria, fungi as well as tuberculosis, biochemical identification, staining techniques and serological techniques.
  • Summer internship at CENTER FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY AND NANO SCIENCE RESEARCH, COIMBATORE. Some of the common lab works done was DNA extraction, Plasmid isolation, Bacterial Electrophoresis, Electroporation and Immunohistochemistry. The project entitled “THE HUMAN THANATO MICROBIOME SUCCESSION” include interesting aspects of determining the time since death by studying the human bacterial flora. It uses the possibilities of forensic microbiology for the determination of the time since death and it opens doors to the investigative purposes.
  • Academic project entitled “THE BIO SYNTHESIS OF SILVER NANO PARTICLES FROM EDIBLE FUNGI (Agaricus bisporus)” for a duration of January 2018 to February 2018. As project objective I have studied anti-cancer as well as anti-bacterial characteristics using the above mentioned silver Nano particles using assay such as MTT, These provide me basics for various disciplinary, and I hope to add more on to my research experience in the upcoming years.
