I have been working in Cellular and Molecular Biology of Infectious Diseases after earning a doctorate from Jawaharlal Nehru University, India. With 30 peer-reviewed articles in esteemed journals like Autophagy and Frontiers in Immunology, I am trying to make significant contributions to understanding TB pathomechanisms and microbial pathogenesis. I also act as a reviewer for journals like Frontiers and Scientific Reports and am a review editor for Gut Pathogens.
