Cardiovascular Interdisciplinary Research Centre (IRC)

My research is focused on using computational modelling to improve understanding of cardiovascular diseases and develop/optimise medical devices used in the treatment of these diseases. More specifically, I work on projects involving prosthetic heart valves for surgical or transcatheter procedures, stents and grafts.

I joined Cambridge Cardiovascular as a Research Assistant in Professor Thomas Krieg's lab in December 2023. Prior to this role, I completed my BSc in Biological Sciences (2019-2022) from Imperial College London, specialising in advanced Immunology, infections, and stem cell biology. Afterwards, I completed my MSc in Experimental and Translational Immunology from University College London (2022-2023), specialising in cancer biology and biological therapies.

Graduate Student

I was born and raised in India where I finished my schooling and obtained my baccalaureate degree in Biotechnology.  After this, I flew all the way to the lovely midwestern state of Ohio, USA where I earned a PhD in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology from The Ohio State University in Columbus. Following a brief stint as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Santa Cruz, I decided to uproot myself once again and swapped all my dollars for pounds, potato chips for crisps and landed at the Cambridge University in 2016.
