About

I am a cell and developmental biologist. I completed my PhD at CSIR-IGIB (India), studying migration and patterning of epidermal cells. It is while tracking these cells in-vivo in transgenic zebrafish that I truly appreciated the beauty of spatial interactions and its corresponding effect on cell behaviour. Since then, I have been completely fascinated with figuring out the molecular underpinning of cellular behaviour in different contexts. After my PhD, I briefly worked with Fujiwara lab (RIKEN, Kobe) exploring the clonal heterogeneity in epidermal stem cells using transgenic mice models. There, I started exploring the co-evolving interactions between epidermal stem cells with their basement membrane in adult epidermis. At Piddini lab, I am now excited to investigate the basis of molecular differences that segregate cellular fitness states. I am working towards generating mammalian cell competition models and understanding signalling cross-talks between competing cells. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, listening to music, reading, aimlessly wandering around the block or occasionally baking a cake.
