About
Dr. Maharana is a Structural Biologist who integrates cryo-EM and computational biophysics to investigate the molecular mechanisms of bacteriophage–host interactions. He earned his Ph.D. from Academia Sinica and NTHU, Taiwan, and currently work as a Researcher at Academia Sinica. His research focuses on bacteriophage structures, and underlying mechanisms of NOD-like receptors, with over a decade of experience in using structural and computational methods to study complex biological mechanisms.
