About

I'm a PhD Research Scholar with expertise in medical imaging and neuroimaging studies focusing on brain health, vascular function, and lifestyle factors such as sedentary behaviour, physical activity, yoga, and shift work. My work spans advanced MRI, CT, ultrasound, and radiographic techniques. I have conducted multiple experimental studies and have published research on the relationship between physical activity, obesity, brain volume, cognitive performance, and vascular health.
