Introduction
I am a cell and developmental biologist conducting research as a postdoctoral fellow in Prof. Carl-Philipp Heisenberg's lab at IST Austria. I am interested in understanding how early embryonic cleavages are synchronized and the developmental relevance of this phenomenon. My doctoral research, in Prof. Barbara Conradt's lab at LMU Munich, focused on uncovering and dissecting the interplay between asymmetric cell division and programmed cell death genes. This was preceded by a master's in biology (by research) in Prof. Sandhya Koushika's lab at DBS-TIFR, where I studied the regulation of axonal transport of mitochondria.
In addition, I have also served as an early career reviewer for journals, namely Genetics (GSA) and Development (CoB), since 2019.
