I am an inflammation researcher focused on studying the mechanisms, causes, and effects of inflammation in the body. Currently, I am working as a Postdoc in the Mbalaviele lab at WUSM, Division of Bone & Mineral Diseases, dedicating my efforts to understanding the role of inflammasomes in infectious osteomyelitis. As part of my PhD from the Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), New Delhi, I explored the role of Tissue Factor activation in hypoxia-induced sterile inflammation. As a member of the WUPS EC, I am a part of the Networking and Wellness Committee.
