- Leading team member in achieving carbon neutrality for the Royal Challengers Bangalore cricket team through a unique fan-driven methodology and emissions management- Performed carbon accounting and implemented innovative emission reduction strategies to reduce the carbon footprint of Procam International- Analyzed carbon and water footprint of MindTree Ltd. for their sustainability report

- Performed detailed microbial analysis of industrial and commercial food, water and soil samples- Performed potency testing of drugs and pharmaceuticals, veterinary medicines and cosmetics

Performed in silico screening of 100 natural antimicrobial compounds against 10 putative drug targets in Helicobacter pylori. Through H-bond and protein-ligand interaction studies, IC50 and ADME-TOX, four compounds were identified that could bind to several of the 10 putative drug targets.
