    About me

    I have been working in the research area of Life Sciences over the past decade. I have an academic background in biology more precisely biochemistry, genomics, and computational biology. I got an opportunity to work on several scientific projects, which enabled me to understand queries related to human health and various perspectives of research on model organisms. I am eager to use my skills in improving health care facilities as well as to advance the basic knowledge of biology. I have a keen interest in writing, reading, travelling, and meeting new people.
