• Delivered customized and personalized learning plans for Biology to higher-grade students and undergraduates online and offline. • Well versed with modern online teaching tools and innovative pedagogical approaches to enhance student engagement and understanding. • Tutoring biology students (Grades 9-12) on weekends.

• Studied the role of PGIPs role in plant defense mechanisms against Alternaria brassicae. Designed and executed experiments to compare defense responses in wild and cultivated Brassica species. • Mentored by Prof. R.C. Bhattacharya, Director, ICAR - National Institute for Plant Biotechnology, PUSA Campus, New Delhi. • Conducted practical sessions for postgraduate and doctoral students for the course Genetic Engineering over three academic sessions, focusing on hands-on training in advanced molecular biol

• Investigated the role of small signal peptides in defense responses of Brassica juncea under aphid-induced stress conditions. • Identified and amplified defense-related cDNA populations from Brassica plants to isolate specific defense-related genes. • Contributed to the understanding of molecular pathways involved in plant stress responses and defense mechanisms.

• Specialized in the long-term storage of plant germplasm in liquid nitrogen using advanced cryopreservation techniques, including vitrification, encapsulation-vitrification, encapsulation-dehydration, and droplet freezing methods. • Preserved seeds, embryos and explants from in vitro raised seedlings and shoots to ensure genetic diversity and conservation of plant resources. • Contributed to the development and optimization of cryopreservation protocols for efficient germplasm storage.
