About

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Agriculture at Brainware University, Barasat, Kolkata (PIN: 700125). I hold a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Plant Pathology with specialization in plant pathogenic fungi and bacteria. My research focuses on understanding the biology, epidemiology, and management of plant pathogens to improve crop health and productivity. I am particularly interested in exploring innovative and sustainable strategies to mitigate plant diseases caused by fungal and bacterial pathogens.
