About
I am serving as Scientist–D (Computer Science) at the INFLIBNET Centre, Gandhinagar, where I joined in 2014. I have been actively contributing to the development and implementation of national-level digital research infrastructure and scholarly communication services for higher education and research institutions across India.
I have played a key role in major national initiatives, including One Nation One Subscription (ONOS), National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), Indian Research Information Network System (IRINS), National Research Data Repository (NRDR), e-Shodh Sindhu, InfiStats, and the ICSSR Data Service. I am also associated with the ORCID Global Participation Program, supporting ORCID adoption, awareness, and integration within the Indian research ecosystem.
With over 16 years of academic, research, and professional experience, my areas of expertise include Research Information Systems, Research Data Management, Bibliometric Analysis, and Statistical Analysis using R, Python, SPSS, and Jamovi. I have contributed to research and scholarly communication initiatives at the national and international levels and represented India at OASPA 2025 in Belgium. I also participated in the CODATA-RDA Advanced Workshop at the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Italy.
