About

My area of expertise is mass spectrometry based protein identification and quantification. While i have gathered extensive experience on stress responsive organellar proteomic analysis, my work and area of interest also encompasses identification of protein-protein interaction, gene cloning and characterization and development of resistant transgenic varieties of crop plants.
