About

I am currently working on the role of neuropeptides (CART/NPY/Nesfatin-1) in the anuran (frog) stress physiology. The anuran tadpoles in nature are subjected to a wide array of physiological stressors including predation, food availability, pond desiccation, temperature variations, hypoxia, overcrowding etc. They show a complex and remarkable life cycle which offers an opportunity to probe the central adaptive mechanisms operative at different physiological states.
