Area of specialization:Neurodegeneration, Innate Immune response, Genetic basis of depression in humans, Development of Malpighian tubules
 

Developmental Genetics is the core area of research in my lab. Research is going on in diverse areas like understanding development and function of Malpighian tubules, understanding protein trafficking in specific cell types, identifying genetic basis of stress and depression in adolescents Recipient of Prof. B R Sheshachar Award for best paper presentation in the XIX All India Cell Biology Conference & Symposia, Calcutta, 1996 Executive Secretary of Indian Society of Cell Biology.
