EducationPh.D. (Biophysics) Oct 2013 - Sep 2016 (Osaka University, Japan) Positions Apr 2017 - Present Postdoctoral fellow at University of Michigan, USA. Oct 2016 - Mar 2017 Research Scientist at RIKEN Brain Science Institute, Japan. Aug 2010 - Mar 2013 Senior Research Fellow, NAIP, ICAR, India. Research interest I am investigating the molecular basis of protein misfolding and aggregation that are linked to aging diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Type-II diabetes. Using a lipid-nanodisc system, I am studying the role of cell-membrane on protein aggregation to uncover the mechanisms of cellular aging and protein misfolding diseases. Using an integrated experimental and computational approach that includes neuroscience, chemical biology, and structural biology. I aim to disclose the structural basis of amyloid formation in a complex cellular environment for the development of potential therapeutic strategies.
