About me

  • The focus of my research is to expand our understanding of the interplay
    between viruses and host immune system using an integrative approach.
    I completed my Ph.D. studies on translational genomics of HIV-1 subtypes
    circulating in India (HIV-1CIN) at St. John’s Medical College, Rajiv Gandhi
    University of Health Sciences, India, in 2014. Post Ph.D. in 2015 I joined
    Prof. Maria Masucci’s group at Department of Cell and Molecular Biology,
    Karolinska Institutet as a postdoctoral researcher studying the role of
    herpesvirus encoded cysteine protease on evasion of host innate immune
    response. In 2019 I was appointed Assistant Professor at Division of
    Clinical Microbiology, Department of Laboratory Medicine, Karolinska
    Institutet.

Research

  • My research is aimed at understanding the mechanism of immune regulation
    during viral infections. The focus of my research is on emerging and
    re-emerging viruses like Coronaviruses, Zika virus, CCHFV etc. and latent
    viruses like herpesviruses and HIV-1 and expand our understanding of the
    interplay between these viruses and host immune system using an integrative
    approach combining multi-omics with immunology, molecular, cell-biological
    and biochemical assays.
