Overview
Microbial contamination of food can result in major illnesses and some occasions even deaths. Thus, knowledge about foodborne pathogens is extremely important for creating awareness among the public regarding the potential health hazards associated with foodborne pathogens. The department focuses on research related to fundamental and applied aspects of pathogen biology, understanding their mode of action, and the molecular mechanisms involved, and developing rapid and sensitive molecular detection techniques for major foodborne infectious agents. The department encourages the concept of transfer of technology, enabling the scientists to develop techniques and tools with potential commercial applications. The department is also involved in educating and training undergraduate and graduate students in various molecular, immunologic, epidemiologic, and biologic aspects of foodborne microbial pathogenesis, as well as monitoring, control, and prevention of such diseases. The department is also committed to training health professionals through various outreach programs.

I am presently working as Assistant Professor in NUCSER, and have 8 years of teaching experience. As a researcher, I have been working in environmental toxicology- related areas for the past 15years. During my PhD 2015-2022, I have worked extensively on the identification of Legionella pneumophila, a pathogen of respiratory pneumonia. In addition, my expertise is in analysis of water quality parameters, microbiological techniques (soil and water), molecular techniques. I have been guiding the PG students as a guide and a Co-guide. I am also involved in analyzing external samples of food and water, and providing training to personnel from different parts of the country. I have a few GenBank submissions in my name. At present, my focus is on understanding the effects of several environmental toxicants including microplastics using the zebrafish model system. I intend to find out the changes in environmental parameters and phenotypic changes of living organisms in the polluted area.
