Educational Background:
Bachelor Of Technology in Biomedical Engineering from Jawahar Lal Nehru
Technological University , Hyderabad , India
Masters in Biomedical Engineering at University of Texas at Arlington and University
of Texas at Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas
Research Interests:
- Instrumentation
- Tissue Engineering
- Biomechanics
Current Projects:
- The Pulsed nanopatterning system: We wish to demonstrate that the application
of appropriate colors of pulsed light in patterns that illuminate the sub-cellular
components of cells or a collection of cells whose channels have been engineered
to respond to light can be used to understand neurological communication
and memory.
What I am doing in the lab
- Working as a Research Assistant at Dr.Garner’s lab
on the nanopatterning system
What I do outside the Lab:
I take courses at two universities through
concurrent enrollment to get done with my masters degree. When at Arlington,
I like to hang around with two of
my best friends. I enjoy watching movies, listening to music and cooking good
food (since I just started cooking a few months back!!!).I like to visit new
places and go shopping. During weekends, I usually stroll around the University
to update myself with all that I miss during the weekdays. When at home, I
call up my parents who stay in India and spend hours talking to them! I Miss
them a lot! |
