Dr. Saikat Mukherjee

About

A Microbiology Graduate with 7+years of research experience, specializing in the field of Molecular virologyand focused on Dengue Virus pathogenesis, understanding host-virus interactions, clinical immunology, identification of severity markers,and special interest in the identification of new antiviral therapy especially by employing PROTAC technology for targeted protein degradation of selected viral proteins by the host ubiquitin-proteasome system to attenuating viral replication.
