Summary
I started my career as a Med. Lab Tech and microbiologist. After my bachelor's and master’s graduation in Microbiology at the Department of Microbiology, Bharathidasan University, India, I did a Ph.D on the Inhibitory effects of piperine compound on Helicobacter pylori and its effects on gastric cancer. Then I moved to the Rhode Island Hospital, U.S.A, for my Post-Doctoral studies with Prof. Eleftherios Mylanokis, where I am actively involved in research projects and engaged in teaching research to undergrad students.
My primary interests are Novel antibiotic molecules against ESKAPE pathogens and gastric cancer-inducing pathogen- H. pylori. I am involved in repurposing clinical and novel synthesized molecules to combat bacterial pathogens.
Currently working as a Assistant Professor of Medicine at Houston Methodist Academic Institute and Assistant Research Member at Houston Methodist Research Institute
