A postdoctoral researcher with 4+ years of experience of working on lung biology, aging, inhalation toxicology and disease development using cell, animal and clinical models. My research area focuses on understanding the pathology and disease development in the lung upon exposure to cigarette smoke and other environmental pollutants. Have experience of working on multi-disciplinary inter-institutional collaborative projects with FDA and NIH. As a part of such diverse and dynamic team, I have gained experience in areas including clinical sample management, project design, omics technologies. Involved in scientific mentoring, outreach and communication through my association with groups like Society of Toxicology, American Thoracic Society and TriState SenNet Consortium. In the next stage of my career, I would like to implement my current knowledge to develop newer models to better understand the disease pathologies and develop efficient diagnostics and effective therapies.
Listed skills include Molecular Biology, Agarose Gel Electrophoresis, Immunology, Microbiology, and 29 others.
