As a dedicated faculty member at the Department of Botany and Microbiology, I am actively involved in teaching and research. I design and teach both theoretical and practical courses, develop engaging assessments, and incorporate research-driven learning approaches. My research spans key areas of microbiology and immunology, contributing to advancements in the field through publications, collaborative projects, and grant-funded studies. I also supervise graduate students and guide final-year undergraduates in their research, fostering critical thinking and scientific innovation to prepare them for impactful careers that serve the community.
areas of expertise
My research focus is on combating multi-drug-resistant bacteria by harnessing natural products for novel antimicrobials, bioactive agents, and advanced materials, while also uncovering resistance mechanisms. My work explores transgenic microflora for therapeutic applications, molecular detection for food safety, and microbe-human interactions in health and disease. Additionally, I develop biomaterials for medical use. At the intersection of healthcare, food security, and environmental biotechnology. I integrate synthetic biology, nanotechnology, and bioinformatics to drive innovative solutions for infection control and global health. I have been actively involved in research in Molecular Microbiology, nanobiotechnology, environmental and applied microbiology. I have undertaken several funded research projects successfully.
