B.Tech (Major : Biotechnology) from West Bengal University of Technology, India (2010 - 2014) Pursuing Ph.D. at Dept. of Biochemistry and Biophysics Texas A & M University, College Station, Texas (2014-present)

Research Interests: Research from this lab has led to identification of three different types of RNA molecules which are involved in Telomere Biology and they are TER1, TER2 and TER2s. Among these TER2 has been seen to negatively regulate the activity of Telomerase Enzyme. Further research has shown that TER2 levels may be tuned under conditions of DNA damage indicating at the possible role of TER2 in regulating Telomerase under conditions of DNA damage. I am currently investigating the regulation of TER2 using biochemical and genetic approaches. I am also interested in studying about the pathway involved biogenesis of TER2 and involvement of TER2 in the growth and development of Arabidopsis thaliana.
