About me
I am a virologist with expertise in viral immunology and myeloid cell biology. I earned my Ph.D. in 2024 from the Regional Centre for Biotechnology, Faridabad, India, where my research focused on elucidating the role of neutrophils in dengue pathogenesis. In 2025, I joined the Systems Virology Lab at the Karolinska Institute as a Postdoctoral fellow. The primary aim of this research initiative is to deepen our understanding of viral pathogenesis. My research interests include investigating the mechanisms of viral infection, with a particular focus on the role of myeloid cells throughout the course of infection.
