I received my Ph.D. in Molecular and Human Genetics under the supervision of Prof. Ashim Mukherjee from Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. As a graduate student I got an opportunity to work on identification and functional characterization of novel interactors of Notch Signaling pathway in Drosophila melanogaster. As a post-doc in the Perrimon lab, I am interested to explore the mechanism of regulation of different signaling components and their cross-talk during development using molecular genetic approaches in Drosophila.
