About
I currently hold the position of Assistant Professor within the Department of Community Medicine at M.K.C.G. Medical College, located in Berhampur, Odisha. My professional endeavours are driven by a commitment to advancing public health research. As a medical doctor and a specialist in public health, my areas of expertise encompass Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Healthcare Management, and Medical Research. My professional trajectory is centred around a paramount commitment to improving the overall health and well-being of our nation. I firmly believe that the cornerstone for achieving this noble goal rests in advancing primary healthcare facilitated by active community participation. In today's healthcare landscape, one of the most pressing public health challenges is the escalating burden of non-communicable diseases. Consequently, my ongoing research endeavours are primarily concentrated on addressing multi-morbidity, enhancing cardiovascular health, and fortifying the resilience of our healthcare systems.
