I am a biophysicist interested in high-resolution imaging of biological samples. I am working on development of fluorescence super-resolution microscopy techniques to study neurotransmitter receptors in mouse brain tissue and the effect of Alzheimer’s disease on their organization in the synapse at single-molecule level. I have been volunteering for Sci-ROI since 2021 and deeply believe in its mission of helping Indian STEM diaspora transition back to India.
