At the Interface of
Biology & Mathematics

I am a PhD student at the Indian Institute of Science. I work at the intersection of cancer metabolism and metastasis. I am interested in taking an interdisciplinary approach to understand the alteration in signaling pathways and rewiring of metabolic programs that aid in survival of cancer cells — using principles from mathematics and physics in addition to experimental techniques.
