About me

Research

  • *Main areas of Research*
    * Endometrial regeneration and endometrial receptivity aiming at managing
    infertility
    * Identifying good quality embryos (GQE) for assisted reproductive
    treatment (ART) based on molecular profile of embryo spent media
    * Develop non-invasive, molecular based method to identify receptive
    endometrium and good quality of embryos for clinical use in ART
    * Endometriosis and endometriosis associated ovarian cancer (EAOC)
    * Effect of SARS-CoV-19 on placental gene expression
    We use 2D and 3D cell culture, single cell RNA sequencing, smartseq2 /
    smartseq3, spatial transcriptomics and bioinformatic tools to understand the
    molecular profile and mechanisms involved in different physiological and
    pathophysiological conditions in female fertility.
    *Few publications*
